Garage conversion

    Hi Guys,

    Might have a few questions here for people so sorry if the questions are a bit vague.

    I want to finish out the garage to standard house finish, i.e. plastered etc.

    It's about 6m by 10m story and a half cavity block.

    Q1) I will be dry lining the walls obviously but I'm wondering what to do with the roof, is dry lining that too the best option or insulate between the rafters and standard plaster board. Pricing wise what is the cheaper solution?

    Q2) I'm just wondering with dry lining will it be hard to get the joints right if I use insulated plasterboard on the roof, having to cut angles out of it etc? What are peoples experiences with this?

    Q3) Are you better off chasing the walls for the wiring or could you cut a groove into the back of the dry lining?

    Thanks for your patience.
    Gary
