Richard tea · 2010-05-13 18:41:18

Hi all, I need some advice on Insulation for my garden shed. The bog standard fiberglass insulation will do. Im trying to work out the quantity I need. The roof area size is 17 x 14 feet. Which thickness will do the job 100mm, 200mm or 300mm? How many rolls will I need? Thanks all Rich

I make it approx 22-23 mtrs square, the average roll covers about 7mtrs sq so if u got 4 rolls u could do the job with a little to spare. The thickness is up to u but if u want to heat it for working in like an office go for the thickest available, it will help retain the heat better.
