Morning guys
Wonder if you can help.
Our house and garage build is complete and one item I was looking to decide on towards the end was insulating and plaster boarding the garage.
Unfortunately the builder has moved on to other projects now so doesn’t really have the manning available to complete the extra work.
Im just looking to retain a-bit of heat not be fully air tight etc
The garage is wood clad with no membrane currently on the walls which is a pain and I’m guessing they were thinking it was staying as a car port.
Ceiling was going to be plaster boarded the wool type insulation added which is fairly simple.
My main question is what do I do with the walls?
Plan was to cut in a breather membrane between the uprights then an air gap.
Next would be 45-50mm cellotex PIR
Then a non permeable/ vapour barrier
Lastly plaster board
Would I need moisture resistant plasterboard if I did it this way on walls and ceiling?
Only ask as it’s a fair bit more £££ than normal board.
Cheers for any advice
