hi there. We have bought an old Schoolhouse from the 1890's that was converted around 1982 into a home. The Lounge has a mezanine level, meaning that its double height for much of it and there is a raised floor are that is a good few feet heigher than the ground outside. We bought the house just before the summer and when it was windy the lounge became incredibly cold with cold air coming in along all the skirting and up through any gaps in the flooring. I thought it might be a good idea to insulate, but I'm not sure where to start. I was wondering whether to put some form of insulation underneath the floorboard or whether to fill the space with some kind of insulation. Would appreciate any comments as I'm planning on doing this work soon before it starts getting cold again and my wife threatens to move out!!
Thanks in advance if anyone has any suggestions
