Hi just found this forum while looking for information for my step daughter - so these ar the questions
she has just moved into a rented property and the landlord is converting the old outhouse (attached to main building ) to a bathroom and toilet thus giving an extra bedroom in the property
I've just visited and was dismayed at what I saw
a) the room has had tiles applied directly to a single skin exteria wall
b) the roof space has been plasterboarded unshure if insulation has been installed
my question is this are there regulations governing these types of convershions regarding Thermal qualitys ?
I think I've already found information regarding exterior walls but struggling to find info regarding what in affect is a slopping wooden roof with no fittet at present ...
I would really appreciate any help / advice as my step daughter has a toddler and a baby and I intend to go to town with the agent tomorrow.
Ohh also forgot to mention she is still waiting for the toilet and bath to be fitted so has no amenity's
Thank you in anticipation
Alan
