Garage Conversion
Hi
Due to wife expecting our second child next year I am looking to convert part of my detached garage into an office, it is brick built with a flat roof and concrete floor a window will also be added. I intend to insulate all walls by using a timber frame and then putting plasterboard over it, i will also be insulating the dividing stud wall along with ceiling and floor. The new room size will be 3m x 3.3m and i think i will need approximately 48m sq of insulation,. What type do you think i should use? Is it ok to use Chipboard for the flooring?, this will be on a timber frame on top of a DPM. I would also like to line the walls with chipboard over a DPM to give even betting insulation before creating a timber frame, is this a good idea? Thank you in advance for your comment & opinions. Thanks Tom |
