I have one room to go, and might go the whole hog there (ironically
it's a spare room). But for the rest of the ground floor, the idea of
pulling off all the skirtings (how else to remove the T&G boards whose
ends go under them, and are fixed with brads an inch from the wall?),

how and with what would you propose to insulate? can't you bodge
*something* for the last (5inch?) board upto the skirts?

Which leaves the Holy Grail, discussed on here before - how to
insulate under a suspended timber floor, with no access from
underneath, without removing the floor.

voodoo? ;)
