Hi all,
Our new property which we will soon be moving into currently has an external single garage. It is a later addition, but is attached to the property on one side. There is no access into the garage from the property, the access is via the front garage door, or an external door to the rear.
I am planning to partition it off, and create an office/study in the rear section, such that access to it will remain through the rear door, and also have a door into the front of the garage within.
My plan is to raise up the floor level with beams/floorboards (insulate beneath), add a stud wall across the width of the garage and stud/insulate the existing internal block walls, and (if necessary) board/insulate the ceiling.
I had thought originally to use OSB/ply instead of the usual plasterboard, as I would quite like the sort of raw unfinished look to it, however what I cannot seem to find anywhere, is what if any regulations there are around this, particularly with regards to fire safety.
Is timber sheeting like this, suitable/permissable as an exposed wall lining?
Thanks in advance,
James
