I'm hoping to be able to insulate the garage which is slowly turning into my workshop rather than a general store room!
It's attached to the house so is brick built with 2 internal walls - attaches to the hallway and then the kitchen runs along the back of the house so the garage is accessed through the kitchen.
The roof is a proper felt roof - a flat roof, with beams internally and chipboard boarding so you could put insulation between the beams.
It's a concrete floor and has fiberglass garage doors. We were thinking of making a false wall across the garage door end as the best way of insulating and cutting down draughts.
i've seen various posts on insulation but scanning through none seem to be for a garage or workshop that's attached to the house with a proper roof so I'm guessing the methods might be different if it's not a corregated roof etc.
What insulation type would you recommend and do you need to leave a gap for airflow if it's a standard felt roof?
Is there anything else you would recommend in terms of insulation?
Thanks,
Jennifer,
