Phew, I feel like I haven't written in awhile... probably because I haven't!
I'm happy to report that things are still coming together - first on our list will be the interior insulation. Right now, I'm sure we're like many of you - waiting to see if we'll get a tax return to help with some of these initial costs.
So, we're playing the waiting game!
Now would be a great time to thank Chris for the comments he made to my last posting. He brings up a great point! We'll certainly be doing the research on our end to be sure the choices we make are safe for our house now - and in the long run.
Remember that every house is different - with its own unique design flaws or quirks or maintenance requirements. The important thing is that I trust the professionals we've chosen because of their track record, knowledge of their industry, and thoroughness! But, afterall - it is my house - so it's my responsibility to remain informed.
The improvements we've chosen are what we feel are - and that have been recommended as - the best for our home.
Do your research - ask questions - keep informed!
I admit, I'm still learning -

Chris' comments are correct if your basement is in poor shape and leaks alot through the walls.
As you said in your title... one size does not fit all.
Thanks Timothy - a great article! I've printed it off for reference.
