All my upstairs rooms have sloping edges, or vaulted edges if that is the right term, checked with a FLIR and the edges are cold.
Checking the loft there is no insulation at all on the slopes, just single plasterboard. I've got enough room to get in a 50mm PIR board and leave 20mm clear above it for ventilation.
Armed with some 50mm board, saw and solvent-free grip filler, decided to try a couple, nightmare to get right into the corner. Due to the way the joists are bolted to the rafters the board has to be fitted in 2 pieces, first bit slid down then across behind the end of the joist etc
Is there an easier way to do this?
Certainly looks better on the FLIR but took all evening just to do 3 rafters (2 in pic below) and got about 60 to do
