Hi guys, I'm new here, I'm currently undertaking a shed conversion, into a dining room...
I've got a single skim wall shed, this has the dpc as expected at the bottom, I've visqueened the full shed, battoned it all out with 3x2 and plumbed/leveled my battons.
My next step would be... Install 75mm kingspan (3inch) then plasterboard (probably foil backed for an extra moisture barrier, meaning it's watertight, insulated, and ready for plaster However at £30 a sheet it's going to cost a fortune. I'll be looking at over £300 in kingspan or celotex.
I've got a load of fiberglass loft insulation at work which will cost nothing.
How well does fiberglass hold up against kingspan? And how would it work in a drywall situation? Obviously it's designed for a loft. But how does it work in walls? And what is its insulation value like in comparison to kingspan.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
Andy
