Question

House wrap question should i put tyvek underneath r board or over top of it or is r board enough?

Answer 1

House wrap should be installed on the original wall sheathing.  Install wrap first and then r board.  This will also be much easier for installation.  Wrap can be held by stapling with a hammer stapler.  Goes very fast and r board will hold wrap securely.

Good luck

Answer 2

If you're not going to seal the seams of the wrap with tape (I'm not talking scotch tape) don't bother putting it on.  Not sealing the seams and all the 'staple holes' (you should actually use nails designed for fabric) defeats the purpose of house wrap entirely.
