am in the process of converting the attic area of my detached double garage in to a useful room.
I don't want it to be habitable but comfortable enough to perhaps stick a tv and small sofa up there.
The garage was originally built by he previous owners with the intention of being properly converted, cavity walls, single skinned bricked up window recess complete with cill etc that simply needs knocking out and a window fitting.
I don't want to go down the planning route and don't want a habitable bedroom, just a bit of chill out space and somewhere i can put my stuff without the kids touching it! Also it might also end up being used just for storage in the future.
I have fitted a staircase and now want to board the garage ceiling in fireline plasterboard although i am stuck on the insulation for between the joists.
The joists are 200's and i have a load of 150 insulation rolls. Question is do i need to fit this with it against the bottom of the upstairs floorboard or will it be ok to rest it on the plasterboard as i put them up?
