    So that attaches to your internal home space?
    Does it not suffer from cold-bridging, ie get drafts coming through?

    Nothing wrong with having a JCW dude... Might be selling mine shortly for another project. :blalalala:

        This was a side extension with garage and 2 beds and a bath above. It does get marginally chilly in winter. We did insulate the garage ceiling with rock wool but in hindsight could've used Celotex but at the time money was tight as it always is! The roller garage door is insulated and pretty well sealed as is the bifold door at the back plus the garage ticks over on a low temp with the rads in there. :smokin:

            Some good ideas, may try something similar to mentalnerve's approach. Have 2 pretty much identical garages on either side of the house, sadly there isn't a CSL in the other one.

            Looking at rubber / tiled flooring for the garage or simply painted, will need to replace garage door mechanism with something newer and maybe a new garage door at the same time.

            Quite a lot of height in the other garage, may allow a lift to be put in to store 2 cars but that will need £££!
