Hi,
Had my first BCO visit this week and he's told me I have to put in 50mm Celotex on all exterior walls, 75mm in stud walls, 275mm in the loft and "as much as you can get" in between floor joists - which at 175mm deep is rather alot!
Do I really have to go to this level to comply? I'm costing it out now and I'm looking at £3k for the insulation alone and that's before I add in studs to fix it and the time it'll take to install.
Seems no one else has this problem....did I just get a tree hugging BCO?!
Any advice?
Cheers,
