QUOTE(Zot @ Jul 26 2024, 11:12 AM) The foam is designed for this and it will not expand or contract in future. The problem is what are they planning to do with the holes. I wonder why they drill on the wood. This probably not common practice. Agreed on the holes. I am reminding them to properly let the concrete set in before seal them. |

Wrong info, the door frame is actually aluminium. So less worry on moisture and warping. However, the foam concrete doesn't solve the hoolow sound issue and now left owth unsighly holes (yet to be covered with putty and painted over)
