Hi All,
I have purchased a 1921 Gambrel roofed house (empty for 10 years) 2 years ago and have been busy fixing it up ever since.
Last year I pulled the old roof shingles (5 layers) and repaired the underlayment and installed 10cm thick insulation panels to the exterior perimeter, then re-roofed.
This year I am removing the old gutters and would like to cap, and insulate the eaves. My concern is that I have insulated the roof, the exterior wall is also insulated and I will be effectively sealing this portion (Without venting). I do not want condensation/vapor forming in this cavity and would like some educated opinions on my situation
Please see the attached image for a good visual.
Kind regards
