Filling with foam is a good idea in my books and provides a more robust finish.cooperphilip said:Where I friction fitted the celotex on some of the rafters I got a little gap. Is this ok or should I fill with expanding foam ?
True. It is known as cold bridging and is remedied by underdrawing the rafters with insulation.Also I have just read that where the rafters spa's are as there is no insulation on them, you can get condensation there. Is this true ?
It wouldn't do any harm.Also the brick walls in the loft what divide the house, I have studded them out and insulated them with lagging. I am then using standard plasterboard on these. Do I need to use a vapour barrier here ?
When you say underdrawing the rafters do you mean put more insulation over the top of the other insulation as well as the rafters ?
No I have not submitted any plans as have read that is ok as it is only going to be used as a storage room. Is this correct ?
