    I have a neighbour knocking down an old shed he used for pigs over years ago. Inside there is a load of insulation board. Now the board is 30mm thick light-ish stuff. Not sure exactly what the name of the board is but is like Polystyrene boards except a bit tougher.

    He said I could take it away if I wanted but is the stuff any good? Would it be any use to insulate a workshop? As in would it assist in cutting down condensation or cause more?

    It's probably not the best of insulation but if it's free it's gotta be better than nothing.
