House Wrap Not Fully Covering House Before Vinyl Siding

It has that old sheet rock like sheathing it s black i think it is exterior gypsum.

House wrap not fully covering house before vinyl siding.

Do you think that there are any other options. House wrap is hidden from sight once your new fiber cement or vinyl siding is installed but it serves an important purpose. So blowing new insulation should not be an option. If you re planning on a siding installation during the colder months look for a house wrap that remains pliable regardless of the temperature.

What do you suggest that we do. A professional builder or contractor should always make the final call on house wrap using it incorrectly can affect your home s ventilation or cause mold to build up. The second would be to blow insulation into the walls. It seems that we have two options.

I am not re sheathing the house so i am unsure if a house wrap is needed when re. Basically the walls right now go exterior gypsum tar paper like stuff foam board vinyl siding. Generally a home s construction method dictates the type of house wrap if any a building needs. One would be to remove the siding wrap the house and then reside it.

I doubt very much that a house built seven years ago has no insulation in the walls unless the builder was so irresponsible to not have done so. I plan on putting vinyl siding. Its primary purpose is to prevent air and water leaks that may have seeped past the vinyl exterior. My question is do i install fanfold foam insulation over the substrate and then put housewrap over the fanfold or do i put the housewrap on and then fanfold over that and then vinyl siding any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
