what's the cheapest insulation I can buy to put in a ceiling cavity between basement and kitchen ? BCO says it's not a requirement but I'd like to put some in there anyway.
thanks LJ

If you use polysterine (SP?), then make sure it is of the flame retardent variety.

Wickes, but if fitting from below, I'd use polysterine - B&Q

And make sure the polystyrene :-) doesn't touch any cables.
All good points. Use celotex or rockwool, and avoid polystyrene if you can.
Polystyrene is not a good choice unles encased in concrete screed :-)
And the cheepest celotex / kingspan is again B&Q - even cheeper than seconds & co's seconds.

It is ? Which B&Q is this ?
I've never seen that at B&Q!
I've only seen Jablite at B&Q. Where/when did you see Celotex/Kingspan? It would be very useful if they've starting selling it cheaply.

I'm quite near there. What brand of insulation is it ?
