Thank you so much for going to the effort of replying Dave. I have poked about inside the drawers and cupboards and can see there is a way to pull them out leaving just the structure, but this is beyond me and I think I would never get them back together again. So I’ve decided “don’t mess with what you don’t understand” is a good plan. Very much much appreciated you helping though.

Thanks for the reply Dave. I really don’t think I can. Whole lot was here when we bought and fitted by one of those fitted furniture companies. I can’t even see how it’s been fitted as there are no obvious screws. The only part I thought I could remove is the skirting (to shove lots more insulation in)

Hehem, Apols. Clearly I need help with my typing too!

We have a window seat in our bedroom in a bay window with only tiles outside rather than bricks in our 1950s house which is very cold. I think it’s single skin although the house has a cavity. Under the seat are built in drawers and cupboards which are super cold inside and I feel a rush of cold every time I open a drawer (the drawers have a small gap inside at the back open to the void behind) I can get into the void behind and see about a half of the plastered wall through a removable panel on top at the rear of the seat. So i would really like to insulate in some way but it’s pretty inaccessible and my diy skills are certainly not up to removing and replacing the drawers, seat etc. My plan was to stuff as much insulation into the void as I possibly could and silicon round the edges of the seat/cupboards to stop the drafts. Any advice much appreciated though as I don’t know if this could cause condensation problems and am sure there must be a better way. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0bck4_PbMDYfi72S4fKwMtz3Q
