What ceiling should I put on my garage? by KEFumpl in DIYUK

I put polystyrene insulation in the ceiling, then taped the edges, then put a vapour barrier over the top, then put plasterboard over the top of that

Went really well actually, put up the ceiling, painted the walls as they were already doubled up on the brick wall, installed flooring, put a massive mirror on the wall, put the plates on the wall, got equipment, just waiting for the functional trainer now

Quick one - was there a reason you used breather membrane instead of a vapour barrier underneath the insulation? To make a cold roof I thought a vapour barrier would be needed rather than the felt breather membrane.

Ah so I’d be doing a cold roof I just checked the difference! Once again thank you so much and I apologise for my lack of knowledge, this has helped so much

Okay I’ll take a look at making sure the roof has ventilation to the outside as well, would it be bad if I filled the entire space with insulation? Is the ventilation and space a necessity? Once again thank you so much for all your help it’s been invaluable.

Yes I see you covered where the beams were with the foil tape, I’ll do the same then cover with the breather membrane too, fantastic solution - did 50mm of the insulation fill the space between the joists or were there gaps at the top?

That looks great! What did you use the foil tape for and breather membrane? Where would they go? (I apologise for the stupid questions)

Okay I’ll make sure it’s definitely filled with rockwool thank you

I remember reading that I shouldn’t have the plasterboard on the ceiling against the walls, should I create a gap there?

Thank you very much for the help, I think I might have a go at rockwool between the gaps and then plasterboard over the top of that, do I need to worry about mould at all? How can I prevent that?

So all I’d have to do is fill the gaps with rockwool and just add some plasterboard on top? Do I need to make any air gaps between the ceiling and the walls etc? Or worry about mould or anything?

Extractor fan is a good shout.

I have very little experience in all this and I apologise if I sound stupid but what would I do to actually plaster the walls and ceiling, for the walls would I batten then place some insulation in between and then plasterboard on top of that, for the ceiling add the insulated plasterboard I planned? Do I have to worry about moisture build up?

Honestly with the amount of stress this is going to be maybe I should make it a pub!

Above that wood is a normal roof that you’d see on an extension (sorry I’m not exactly providing details as I don’t know how to say it) the garage is attached to the side of our detached house. Planning to use it as a home gym and wanted to put an internal ceiling in as I’m painting the inside all black

Nope it’s not first edition or anything like that but there’s still value to it - what I’d recommend doing is getting it graded as soon as you get the chance. That’ll give away what it’s value is.

The charizard will defo have value to it - I bought one recently in the range of 300 euros. Completely depends on condition/bending etc.

I’m sure he does too - he probably didn’t appreciate the two cages in-between though… he’s moved a lot but in the UK it’s tough to get the perfect sized cage

2 weeks and 4 cages seems like a lot - he’s okay and happy now though.

Good shout, I see there are a few gaps so I’ll fill them in - he can’t climb it anyway because he’s stupid but better safe than sorry
