In this episode I’ll give you a brief overview of what we’ve done to insulate our property and why this is so important. I’ll also take you through the chipboard flooring install in the kitchen. I’ll show you our process for this and also chat about a few of the details to make the house as thermally efficient as possible. Remember there’s a more detailed video about the insulation on the Member Zone: members.gosforthhandyman.com

Well done Andy. That was a hard day’s work, but so satisfying to see your beautiful floor at the end of it. All your hard work and care installing the insulation will be worth it in the years to come.

Your videos helped me pass construction gcse more than my teacher did.

Holy cow, Andy! You're almost at 200,000 subs! Way to go. Hey everyone else, tell your friends that Andy has one of the best channels to watch for down-to-earth advice and he's entertaining to boot! Cheers.

It’s looking good, Andy. And I agree with your parting comments. Yes, let’s be nice to one another 🌞

Super tidy work it's going to be stunning when it's all finished. For fitting flooring I use 65mm decking screws they seem to work well with the chipboard flooring never had any issues.

Excellent work on the insulation. With energy prices going through the roof your investment is going to pay off big time. 👏

Well done. Lots of hard work. The system we are using is (1) Pro Clima Solitex Plus, a windtight breathable membrane up and over the floor joists (2) 100mm of RockWool Flexi sandwich in between (3) Pro Clima DA airtightness membrane laid over the top which prevents moisture and warm air escaping from the warm interior to the cold crawl space. All taped to the walls

Feb to March this year we spent £5.00 on gas due to ongoing insulation of the 60 year old house.

That worked out really nicely around the bay window, space to take out the window, but very good support up to it.

Looks terrific. You must be so pleased.

Very good again Andy, but still lots to do. Hopefully the better weather as Spring arrives will make life easier. Looking forward to seeing the windows and the bi-folds going it, then it will really feel like home.
