You would be better off studding the wall out first with 3X2, insulating between and then boarding over, much cheaper and you could use cavity batts instead of kingspan, or if you wish, use 25mm kingspan on the walls first, then screw through these to affix your studwork, so that there's no cold spots, then use batts. -- Phil L RSRL Tipster Of The Year 2008 |
