If you look up at a roof from inside the loftspace...

[5t3IIa]

It is a 'normal' roof set-up, as has been mentioned...it's fine.

 

[Onket]

Clearly I'm not entirely sure about that.

Are you a roofer, Stella?

 

[5t3IIa]

Yes.

 

[Onket]

Excellent. Thanks.

 

[5t3IIa]

No problem.

I think you should both go and look at that roof together. And I will lock the hatch. And you will stay in there until you kill each other or bone each other.

win/win

I think you should keep your strange little fantasies to yourself

i think the insulation can go either on the ceiling part or the actual roof part

You had a survery done when you bought the house didn't you AS? Did they check the roof? If it's been signed off as fine then don't worry.

I had a survey. I'm not worried about the house falling down, I'm worried about how fucking cold it is here. Brrrr. I might as well be outside. I was wondering if loft insulation would help and how much it would help. I always thought it was more to do with the wooden floorboards.

You know when it snows and you look at rows of houses and some have snow on the roofs and some don't? The one's without snow have shit insulation.

They are losing enough heat to melt 6" of snow 10 feet above them.

It really really really makes a difference. Plus it's not that expensive or difficult to do

1) It's not my roof.

2) I was more worried about wet getting in than heat getting out. Looked like there was felt or something missing. I'm not asking about insulation.

Mine has visible sky though slate cracks (between almost every one) and even in the best of storms nothing has gotten wet.

Well.

It's not like I haven't given you killing as an option.

your house sounds fucked.

Hey!

 

[quimcunx]

Hey!

You also have killing as an option.

Equal opportunities innit.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Nah it's fine.

 

[5t3IIa]

Nah it's fine.

Do you have insulation?

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Do you have insulation?

Lots of boxes and some wood.


I do have something but I can't remember how deep it is. I bet it needs redoing. Something needs to be done, my house retains no heat.

It really does. It's the cheapest and easiest way to insulate a house and it works wonderfully.

^^Stella is a roofer, you know.
