I have read through some of the topics here via search engine results and I have found some very knowledgeable folk here. So much so, a lot of it does somewhat baffle me as my skills are directed towards farming and not houses! I have recently removed all of the old insulation from our loft space in our circa 1760 house in Wiltshire. I have also hoovered all of the old chaff and straw out from the original thatch many moons ago.
Now, with a somewhat clean attic to work on the plan is this:
Insulate.
Board.
Use.
Simple plan but will it be simple to do? I'd like to have a small workstation up there in which to build models truth be known (I think she would rather me up there out of the way too!)
We got given two packs of Superglass insulation to use. 90mm thickness, 12sq/m per pack. Ideally I would like to lay this between the rafters and then lay (is it available even?) timber backed insulation board over the top of the rafters at 90deg thus topping up the insulation and offering a floor to use.
Is this simple plan, simply possible?
