Hi, could anyone please suggest an affordable alternative to celotex?
It's the rigigity rather than the R value that is of interest to it's
intended use.

Thanks.

The affordable one is seconds.
Around half price.
Small bashes and malforms, easily fixed with canned foam or cut off.

Google "rigid insulation board seconds"


Sounds to be a good option - I'll take a look when I get round to doing
the floors.

£22/sheet for 50mm - that's usually as good as the price gets unless you get
really lucky with "seconds".


I have not bought any recently, but when I did my workshop a few years
back I was paying about £14 sheet IIRC. I get mine from:

They will deliver within a reasonable area.
