Hi.
So having moved into our new home, mh next project is to floor and insulate my loft.
Upon inspection thd previous owner has floored in with bits of old wardrobe etc..
So I plan on removing this stuff. The loft has has the insulation topped up as there is fresh insulation on top of all the flooring.
So after clearing the old wood I plan on laying some 2x4 that will run parallel to thd hangers to raise the floor. Then use chipboard flooring. I also want to install rigid board insulation between the rafters which are 75mm deep. So small I right in thinking 25mm board with 50mm air gap. The roof has sarking board, membrane then tiles.
Here are some rough drawings.
The area in green is where I plan on fitting a new keylite loft hatch and ladder.
The area in red is a rough size guide to calculate timber sizes needed. My loft is sort of split into 4 sections just like this
This is a sort of cross section drawing
So that's the plan I've come up with and help is appreciated.
