Vapor Barrier

Vapor Barrier for new construction has evolved into quite an important phase of construction for both residential and commercial applications. Cardinal Construction installs vapor barrier in agreement with ASTM 1745 and 1643. Properly installed vapor barrier provides protection from VOC’s, methane gas and radon gas from intrusion into the home. These and other biological off gassing contribute to odors and contaminated air in the living space. Along with gases, vapor barrier also provides protection from sub slab moisture intrusion. Vapor barrier installation includes sealing around pipes and other concrete penetrations and replaces 6 mil plastic installed by most concrete companies. Don’t cut corners on this vital portion of your construction process, you won’t be sorry.
