Looking for a bit of advice.
I bought a house in February. The kitchen was converted from the original garage years ago. It’s warm enough when the heating is on, but cools very fast it has a 12 foot ceiling.
My question is which would be the best and cost effective way of insulating it. Unfortunately I’ve no access in the attic due to a block on flat wall between the original garage and the rest of the house
Do I put up insulated slab on the ceiling or cut access point and roll out a thick layer of earthwool and repair slab
