Over the blue insulation board we recently applied a relatively new product called Zip board.
It's a particle board sheathing product with a water resistant coating already factory applied, to keep out moisture.
A special tape is applied at all the joints to create a continuous seal, wrapping the house to keep it air tight.
This saves an entire construction step from the usual method of wrapping a home's sheathing with a separate water resistance product as a separate installation.
The application of this new product went very smoothly.
Part of my duties as job janitor was to stack the cut pieces according to size, so that Steve & Ronnie could use an appropriately sized piece, rather than cutting a full sheet.
By the end of the application there was definitely minimal waste left over.
