Insulated garage!!!
One of my neighbours has just had their house cavity wall insulated.
The numpties who did it drilled into the single brick garage wall and guess what:- Pumped the insulation into the garage, lots of it. It will take them ages to remove the stuff!!! |

I want to see a picture of that! The ones that did my house filled the electricity cupboard - 'tis the only single brick section, as it's built into the cavity. Fortunately it was a blown fibre and not a foam! SteveW |

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember chudford saying something like: One of my neighbours has just had their house cavity wall insulated. The numpties who did it drilled into the single brick garage wall and guess what:- Pumped the insulation into the garage, lots of it. It will take them ages to remove the stuff!!! Utterly amazing, some people. Just when you thought there was nothing new in the world, the stupid prove you wrong. |

Not unless there's an immigrant or a pricess locked in the garage as a result of the insulation... -- http://www.freedeliveryuk.co.uk http://www.holidayunder100.co.uk |

It takes about an hour to completely remove insulation from a garage, and about three times that to remove it from a kitchen. I know this from experience. -- Phil L RSRL Tipster Of The Year 2008 |
