Help! I’m in a quandry. I live in the Gulf Coast Area of Texas and in the process of building a home. My builder says that it is “better” to use felt paper than tyvek house wrap. 99% of all new construction here is wrapped in tyvek or a similar material. Hope someone can guide me on this.
Thanks

Cruise the posts for the last two weeks and you'll find more than you ever wanted to know about felt vs. housewraps. If, after reading through those posts, you arrive at a solid, irrefutable conclusion, please share your thoughts because, so far, opinion is pretty much all over the place. (Personally, I prefer Typar wrap, felt paper in some situations and rosen paper in others). GOOOOOD Luck!
Measure it with a micrometer, mark it with a piece of chalk and cut it with an axe.
