Here's a related question:  We've been speccing traditional bitumen / felt
dampproofing.  Our contractor prefers (of course) to use the newer poly
whatevers.  I prefer the traditional, but he had a good point:  the bitumen
will crack and dry out over time while the poly whatevers will remain
resilient as long as they are not exposed to UV.  What do you think?
