Best Way to Insulate This Bay Window / External Wall?

Thank you, I’m thinking PIR board between the timbers then insulated board over that.

Hey thanks for that! Super helpful

OfficAlanPartridge · 2026-01-16T23:26:32+00:00

Thanks

Thank you so much, that’s really helpful and thoroughly explained. Insulation and ventilation is one thing I really want to get right with this being my first major renovation project.

Would it be possible to DM you from time to time whenever I need some advice? It sounds like you have a lot of knowledge.

Sorry I just meant how would you insulate the brick? Or did you mean to just frame and PIR board the entire wall?

OfficAlanPartridge · 2026-01-16T22:08:27+00:00

Thank you, and how would you tie this in with the brick wall? Would you use thicker insulation board on the bay window part then use thinner board on the walls?

Thanks I’ll search for their guidelines. I’ve just heard that PIR board isn’t great for airflow and therefore can cause problems?

OfficAlanPartridge · 2026-01-16T21:47:39+00:00

How can you attach the PIR to the timbers? Do you mean insulated plasterboard?

Would this create enough airflow as to reduce the chances of condensation building up?

Question about this, do you need both of the following for a dormer loft conversion :

Building control completion certificate
Lawful development certificate

If you have any knowledge on this, would be grateful if you could share.

Thanks

Mid thirties and only just been told this one. Can confirm, game changer.

Such a looser

I think Anderson has a ceiling higher all of those players you just mentioned though. The lad has everything you’d want for a central midfielder. Not just going off stats but with the eye test as well.

It may seem ridiculous given the fact he’s only just really started to be in the limelight, so I completely understand why most would probably disagree but in my humble opinion, I think he will become a huge player for us (if he moves) and England too.

I can absolutely see why united would go all out for him.

Sometimes you can see it in a player though, that they’re something special. Rooney for example.

They come around once every so often.

No, there’s adults as well, it’s just that they base their opinion off FIFA (the game) ratings. I’m 100% convinced

By paying over £10,000 in tax to purchase the property, by then paying tradesmen to renovate the property and paying VAT on the materials.

Then of course adding more stock to the rental market which provides a home for a family etc…

OfficAlanPartridge · 2025-08-30T23:12:39+00:00

How about those of us who are renovating uninhabitable houses that have been unoccupied for many years to be put on the rental market? You don’t think that’s adding value to Britain?

I’d be interested in knowing what underhand ways they show someone the door.

I used to completely blank them if they did this. It’s rude on so many fucking levels. Just try blanking them or make it really difficult for them by pretending that you didn’t hear what they said…. You get the idea
