how to insulate a 1960's dormer chalet style house

Anonymous user 14/03/2024 - 2.31 PM

Could anyone tell me how well insulated dorma chalet style houses were in the 1960's? We are considering buying one and are concerned about cold bedrooms. If insulation is required how do you fit it into small roof voids without losing ventilation. Is it necessary to add false ceilings and walls to add extra insulation?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Remove existing roof covering. Insulate after counter batten. Vent eaves and ridge line.
