  • Has anyone installed insulation beneath Victorian floorboards, and if so have you noticed a significant difference in the warmth of the room? My partner and I are going to sand back the boards in our Victorian terrace and are weighing up whether it’s worth installing insulation beforehand… would value folks’ experiences!

  • Massive difference, not only it warmer and kept the thermostat low at 18.5 degrees and still feel lukewarm, it is also noticeably quieter also cooler in the heatwave (paired with shutter windows result in it being 23 degrees during the 40 degree heatwave).

    We also have more reclaimed timber added to tighten up the gap too.

    I think we spend £5,000 in all but the hallway which was an astronomical amount, but the thermostat in the coldest room never dip below 15 degrees (forget to mention, we live ground floor in a terraced)

    Heating bills work out around £100/months with the insane gas cost.
