Insulating walls on a weatherboarded house
Posted: Mon Oct 08, 2007 4:27 pm
Hi,
Last year I bought a weatherboarded house, but last winter noticed that it got very very cold ! After some investigated, I discovered that there is just fresh air between the outside weatherboards and the internal plaster boards. :(
Does anyone know of a way of insulating the walls, without having to either remove the weatherboarding or the plaster ?
I have seen the stuff that gets pumped through a whole for brick cavity walls, but I assume this would not work on a timber frame house due to all the noggins etc....
Please someone help me, I can't face another winter with 10 layers of clothes on !!
Thanks
Julian
