To comply with the new regulations you would first be better to contact the building control officer who works for your local council they will give you free advice.
All the information is allso in the up todate version of the building regulations, you can buy a disc on e bay for a couple of pounds with all the new regulations on it.

Hope this information was of some use to you.

Mildew in the loft: I live in a victorian terrace top flat. I insulated and part floored the loft and want to use it for storage. The roof isn't great but it's not damp and has a small draft. Is there a relatively cheap way to eliminate the mildew and mustyness so it can safely be used for long-term storage?
