Am currently clearing out the loft on our 1930's semi, and its a fairly large space, ideal for storage. My original plan was:
remove all old loft floor insulation (its black with dust and ripped anyway)
replace with new Earthwool or similar (leaving gaps at eaves)
board entire loft floor with 18mm chipboard sheets
insulate rafters with Celotex or similar
We want to use the loft for storage of all sorts, seasonal clothes, suitcases, electrical goods etc so thought a warm loft better, for the winter months. If so, should i not both with the Earthwool under the new loft flooring? Was only going to be 100mm put down anyway, between the joists
