Project: Framing and Insulation

The framing of an authentic California-Spanish hip roof begins over the master bedroom of the beach house in Malibu.

Contractor Rick Davenport demonstrates the installation of wet-spray cellulose insulation. Jets of water moisten the insulation as it leaves the blower hose nozzle, then the damp cellulose sticks to the studs and sheathing, filling the wall cavity.

The second-floor walls are framed and erected at the Malibu beach house.
