I'm due to relay my upstairs floor and I'm using reclaimed pine floorboards. What would people recommend I use as under-floor insulation material? Shall I use Celotex or is there a more efficient insolation that I can use
Mostly thermal. Downstairs is heated but the cold might be creeping in from the external front wall of the house and the floor is cold in the winterDo you mean for sound insulation? Or thermal? What is on the other side, and is it heated?
How do you judge /perceive heat loss through a floor over an unheated garage , and surely thermal insulation must be better and heat loss reduced with 200mm thickness of loft roll ?!I find heat losses through a kitchen floor above an unheated garage are imperceptible with 100mm loft roll

I obviously misunderstood the original comment - ' I find heat losses through a kitchen floor above an unheated garage are imperceptible with 100mm loft roll ' ,for some reason I took that to mean you didn't think insulation any thicker than 100mm would make any difference.The floor is now not cold to the touch.
