fossy Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 Having followed advice about laying a frame on top of existing rafters as a base for a new floor I now need to infill between the old rafters so that I can fill the void with insulation. I assume that this is done by fixing 150mm(say) timber baton to the rafters and and fixing some form of boarding to the batons - again I assume hardboard. Does anyone know how the board is cut to fit exactly? - and what is the French for hardboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
