Hi
Behind our electric fire in the fireplace there is a void which is bringing in draughts and noise from the road outside. There was an old back boiler but this is not used and was replaced with a new gas system boiler when we moved in.
How can we insulate this or block this up to reduce draughts and noise? Could we put insulation board across the void down to the floor (the house has suspended floors) or what should we ask a builder to do?
Many thanks for any advice
Lauren
