There was some reference in a previous thread to the notion that although one ought to be able to add internal insulation in an older building (such as a
20s or earlier house with no cavity above the ground floor), that Building Control would prevent this, as it would be a "modification" that would be disallowed, with BC insisting instead that the mod be to bring the upper floor to "current standards"? Is this the case or am I mis-remembering the point that was being made. If I'm not, then what would "current standards" be in such a house?- posted
