Hopefully someone can give me some advice on the following issue.
I have a new build property (about 10 years old) the house is L shaped with a dining room and double garage forming the L. My problem is the dining room is always freezing, at least 3 degrees cooler than any other room in the house. We moved into the house just over 5 years ago and we have had to gut more or less every room so it's been the last job on my mind, however it has now got to a point where I need to do something about it. I have checked the radiator and it is always hot and I have made sure it is suitable for the size of room 4.5m suare.
My gut feeling is because the room is one level high the heat is escaping out of the ceiling, now there is insulation above the ceiling but I plan on making this double thickness. The dining room roof space is open into the garage for I presume access.
Has anyone used the thermal plasterboard? I was intially thinking of just doing the ceiling and then maybe the two outerwalls but I don't want to goto all that expense if it's not going to resolve my issue. Or does anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks for taking the time to read.
