    could someone point out where I would get full instructions for dry lining the external facing walls of our house ?
    I know its just thermal board but is there some other stuff that needs doing before I just stick it up ?
    How do you manage the "thermal bridge" around the window sills etc.

    thanks
    Rob

    Done incorrectly, you will be doing more harm than good to the health of the occupants via the risk of condensation / mould etc
    You also need to consider the internal walls that meet the outside walls

    Around the reveals and soffits, just cut the warm board at 45*, stick/batten out and skim.
