Our lovely old house which we bought 18 months ago is very poorly insulated and the main sitting room is very cold. There are two large bays, one square, one part-hexagonal, which are glazed (windows thin double glazing, a number of panes “blown” and to be replaced). Below the windows the single brick walls with pebbledash outside are panelled (painted). As one of the possible ways to improve insulation and comfort in that room at least, we are considering asking a builder/joiner to remove the panels, install breathable multifoil, and reinstate the panels on top (windowsills may need to be made bigger). How can we find out if this is feasible, if so which of the many products would be suitable, and most importantly find someone who knows what they are doing with multifoils in this kind of situation? All suggestions very gratefully received.
