Our 1960s house has blown newspaper/ cellulose insulation between the joists. The main part of the loft between the eaves is boarded (standard pitched roof). Last winter we added another 200-300mm mineral wool insulation on the unboarded eves.
if we want to add more insulation to the centre part can we add mineral insulation on top of the boards/ solid foam insulation? I know we could take up boards and add loft legs but that would be a big job we’d need to pay for due to time. There is also a lot of stuff stored up there. Does that act as insulation anyway? We would probably just add insulation to the free bits.
not sure if insulation on top of boards is very effective/ could cause condensation on the boards?
