My house is built using timber frame with upvc cladding on the 1st floor,I find the rooms very cold with a small amount off damp.i am having new windows fitted and was hoping there is a product I can use on the bedroom walls to make the rooms warmer.Maybe some sort of board but not too thick
Thanks
 
You can get insulated plasterboard from the likes of British Gypsum, the thinner the insulation the less effectively it will be so you will have to compromise on space and insulation. There are other suppliers out there though. http://www.insulation.kingspan.com/uk/pdf/k18.pdf Its normally dabbed to the walls or onto battens. Google 'insulated plasterboard'.

Its usually cheaper though to fit battens to the wall and insulated between and then add a board on top.
 
Thanks for the info will check the site out.Was reluctant to fit batons as I dont want to lose too much wall space as one off the rooms is tiny Also I need to know what tickness I am going for so I can get the window fitters to install the correct size sills
