Choose the right insulation?

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

By extension, I will like to aisolera my roof. There are a lot of different models to choose from. The option is likely to become the chip, but there are others that should be mentioned with. It is possible to isolate with hemp, flax, wood fibers and recycled paper. Adds some links to various companies that produce or are distributors for products from the materials I mentioned before;

It would be interesting to hear which of the methods that are most affordable. Anyone who recommends one or the other method?

A good description how to put the roof from the ground up

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

Some inspiration for the roof, I will add I have to pick from more modern technology in comparison to how the house was built from scratch. I've been meaning to insulate the roof with wood shavings, and then I have to put in new trusses. This amount coats also to prop up the roof a little, which I think is needed, when I see how the ceiling is now working.

Below is a link to a good description how to put a roof with roofs;
