Hi!
Im about to embark on a big project (well, big for me being a rank armature builder!) to covert part of a garage into my 'Man Room!'
I'm starting with the floor (seems like a good place to start) and was wondering what's the best way to go about it...
It's a single skin brick garage with concrete floor and I was thinking of laying a damp proof membrane, 50x50mm battons, rockwool between the battons then chipboard sheets on top. I know rockwool is probably not the best thing to use to insulate a floor but I've got rolls and rolls of the stuff and want to keep costs down to a minimum! Also, chipboard sheets are probably not the best thing to use either but I can get them for next to nothing too!
Are there any major flaws with my plan?
Any suggestions would be greatly received!
Thanks, Bruce!
