Is $3,300 to wrap crawlspace masonry with R12 insulation barrier a fair price?
Project Details
I am currently dealing with a mold issue. My mold remediation company is asking me to decide on insulation. I'm unsure if the R12 wrap is worth the cost, as I don't think it will significantly impact my power bill. I'm also taking steps to deal with moisture, including revamping the vapor barrier and going fully unvented. There is a dehumidifier in the crawlspace but no HVAC output. The company is asking for this decision after removing my current mold-filled insulation from the home's floor.
