Nice warm weekend ahead. Perfect for fitting insulation between rafters. We need to infill with 200mm of Balytherm.
Before I do so, anyone got any tips?
So far I have been told to
cut the sheets with a sharpened trowel or scraper (to avoid dust)
be sure to 'tie on' while waltzing around on the rafters
put a couple of temporary battens under the rafters and push the insulation down to them from outside (above)
foam round the edges of each rafter space, not each sheet (two lots of 100mm)
Then there's a BBQ on Monday evening, by when I hope the job will be finished. Everyone welcome.
Breaking my new 'never-at-weekends' rule, but his weather is too good to miss. too rare.
