I am currently trying to get one of the free deals for cavity wall and loft insulation, each time my wife appears to earn around £200 per year too much to qualify, I am going to keep shopping around and hopefully get a deal somewhere. in the meantime I have loads of sheets of polystyrene (I know fire hazard) and about 20 sq meters of half inch fibre type underlay (was used for wooden floor tiles) Is it worth using this in the loft short term to increase insulation by laying over the rafters or would the gain be minimal to the point of not worth doing and just wait until I get the real thing. I am just trying to see it through the next few months of winter weather.
