External insulation mitigates some of the risks of condensation and damp. And is less disruptive internally.
NotThamesWater-
I've considered it but how do you solve the issue of the roof not overhanging the gable end wall enough already, let alone once you add further insulation.
We'd need to remove all render (cement), add insulation, render with lime, amend roof, sort gutters etc which is why internal is appealing as we're gutting everything anyway
-
Not feasible if the wall is built to the boundary though.
