ProDave Posted Friday at 18:00 Share Posted Friday at 18:00 I can't comment if the quote is fair. BUT I see no mention of insulation. So I would stop and think what you want. Dormers, particularly old ones are poorly built and poorly insulated. If you are going to the trouble of replacing rotten cladding, I would first stop and think is that all you want to do, or would you rather use the opportunity to upgrade it more and make it a much better insulated space, quite possibly for little extra cost compared to just re cladding it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
