I live in a late 70s Timber Frame Bungalow. I assumed that the 100mm stud walls were filled with insulation but when I started working on the house I found that there was only about 20mm of mineral wool insulation.I have asked the local energy advice centre what to do but they were very unhelpful suggesting a very thin insulating wall paper.
We tried pumping in Cavity Wall insulation through the plasterboard but it didn't work. So after toying with blowing in polystyrene beads for a while we have decided the best way is to remove the plasterboard and insulate the wall.
