Can you advise where are the areas to install with this TCL cellulose ?

You mean the whole house never reaches 31 deg. celcius? shocking.gif

never had any problems with ants or roaches but i am not sure if i can generalise from my place to others. its an old renovated house (50s) but we took great care to close the thing up. so over the last 18 months we had two (2) roaches who both came through the tub since the blasted installer didnt bother to put the U-tube in place. did that myself after i found out and havent seen any roaches at all so far.

i read that cellulose is helping with termites and all. roaches dont usually come through the roof so probably different combat needed there. we have no ants in the house if you exclude the super tiny ones that like to eat spill-overs.

if the cellulose insulation helps to control termites and roaches, then it is an added advantage.

for my case, i am very much concern if the west wall is not insulated, the cost spent on roof insulation would help to reduce the heat or not?

when do we normally do this house insulation? after all other renovation works have been completed?

i'm also interested in this product

The cellulose is one type of material put on top of ceiling to prevent heat from coming into the house and make home cooler.

I am making a research which is the best material although some of them recommended TCL cellulose. rolleyes.gif

please do share your research  biggrin.gif

is it recommended to do it before the warranty of the house expires? what if there is leaking due to rain. having this would make the repair more difficult?

sorry if my questions sound stupid

i'm going to renovate my new house soon and this is the first time i'm doing it and there are a lot of things that i don't know  icon_question.gif

Hi,

Anyone can advise me on the below:-

I wish to do my kitchen extension with roofing. Awning type will be more save for me. Developer already given 5' wall, I wish to extend it to 7' and put grill for another 2'. For the roof, some people advise not to use the Ajiya Awning because it will be hot and noisy during raining day. Alternative to reduce noise some contractor suggest using polycarbonate skyline (compact type). Anyhow, it will be hot too.

Another contractor told me to use industrial zinc roofing with added fiber glass & reduce heating layer. Where can I find this product? Any suggestion for contractor that doing this?

Appreciate your kind advice.

Thanks a lot.

I think you don't need insulation for your roof in this case since your area is not fully enclosed by brickwall. The heat still comes in through the 2'grill which is an open area. Don't waste your monies for insulation in this area.

May be noise is your concern during rainny days.
