One or two depending on size into the loft. No ductwork - 10mm off the bottom of all doors. -

What do you want?

Does it work? Is it vented? Can you rod it? Are pipes properly protected?

Insulated plasterboard across the rafters.

Whatever it is it will have needed a Building Control application - a quick phone call and you can find out what the craic is!

Obviously!

Move the door!

You’ll be pulling it up in a year.

Don’t put a timber floor in. It will sweat like mad and the timber will rot unless you ventilate the floor. Do as Nick says - floor finish on VCL on insulation on DPM.

Specified ridge height. Relative to what though?

Waste of money insulating the garage if it’s not heated. Insulate the wall between the garage and utility and the floor between the garage and any habitable (and heated) accommodation above. No heat = no insulation required.
