Roof Insulation - Week 2

We fitted the insulation into the frame and covered it in a thin menbrane, the next step will be to clad the ceiling in plasterboard beofre finishing off.

The wall into the landing isn't full height so we've filled the gap with insulation and we'll plasterboard the wall to give the impression it does go full height!

The other option is to rip out the ceiling in the landing so it goes right to the roof - we've decided this can wait until we do the whole roof........ we can then have a sky light letting natural light into the top of the house.

Roof Insulation - Week 1

Last weekend we stripped off the cladding and 1cm (!) of insulation on one side of the loft so you could see the underside of the tile before building a frame for the British Gas insulation to sit in.

The big pile of cladding and other off cuts of timber will be sawn up into wood burner sized bits so we have fuel for the stove that will hopefully go in the sitting room by Christmas.
