Hi folks,
I live in an Edwardian house and my daughter's bedroom and my study both appear to have zero insulation between the ceiling and the tiles so I'm pouring out heat (and shivering!)
The simplest solution looks to be to attach Celotex type insulating panels to the ceiling from the inside, but no way am I taking down the old ceilings (done that before with 100 year old lathe and black plaster and no way am I doing that again!)
I have a stud finder to locate the joists, but I see that insta-stick PU foam is also recommended - like builder's foam but not very 'expandy'. Anyone used this stuff? Or used a different method?
