    Coming from a cold country it always amazes me how cold, humid and uninsulated many garages and workshops are in the uk :) it wasn't very thick insulation but roof insulation is really effective. Next step would be a small heat pump, so nice to have in the garage :)

    make a wood frame around the roller shutter, + make 2 lift out insulation "doors", makes a hell of a difference, especially with grinder noise,. use some old roof grab-handles on them, 10 seconds to lift them out, best thing i ever done [says the neighbour]

  • @bazjr86
    @bazjr86 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Had to use that foil tape outside for preparing the foundations for houses. Same idea as what your doing but the insulation goes down then concrete is poured on top. What a nightmare of a job in the winter 😝

    Nice work mate 👍 another good tip from a thermal insulator (hvac and pipes) always hang the tape from a lose belt around your waist for easy access, and never rip the backing off.

  • @ShalomBrother
    @ShalomBrother ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Shame you only built it single skin with no cavity but I know it was done for maximum width inside. I built 1 3 years ago, fully insulated roof, insulated door, insulated cavity and breeze blocks and it still condensed up in winter. I think I should have insulated the floor under the concrete as I think the cold rises up out of the ground. I’ve had to put a small heater and a dehumidifier in over winter months.

  • @liamholcroft7212
    @liamholcroft7212 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Few bits, wear a mask with this stuff the dust is bad and gets on your chest. And rather than doing the tape in small sections, just peel a load back, stick it down and rip the tape but not the backing. makes it easier to peel and stops it curling up.
