I had previously posted https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/window-frame-falling-to-one-side.649352 about a window falling down. Now I want to insulate above the window and I'm wondering what is the best way to do this. As I understand if I do this incorrectly I can cause moisture to get trapped here.
Do I just stuff some rockwool insulation up there then put some vapor barrier before finally closing it off with insulation tape? Bearing in mind this is a flat roof and these are the joist running on top. Also the gap between the window and plasterboard was covered with small bit of wood trim.
Before the screws were installed.
And for the below the window do I just fill this space with insulation boards?
With the window cill remvoe and looking down
