Oh the cheaping out comment. Yeah that's the builder buying the cheapest POS everything the can find (cabinets, fixtures, outlets, etc). My advice to anyone who is building a new house here. do base everything and upgrade after the fact with quality items. So them not using foam would fit into that mindset. But it's not even an option for us to upgrade to in the build process.

The warranty people in The Villages hate me, I'm sure of it.
