    Insulating a Corrugated Plastic Roof

    I have an old outbuilding with a clear corrugated plastic roof which I need to insulate. Can I put up insulation board underneath it (providing I support the boards from underneath so the plastic roofing doesn't bear any of the weight) or would this be ilegal or a fire hazard?

    Many thanks in advance,

    Sven

    I would speak to these guys, they seem experts. i had a civity wall issue and their advice was spot on.

    Google "insulationplace.co.uk"

    Drop them an email or call, and they answer all questions or find out the answer for you.
    great price and delivery was fast! hope this helps, or that you have solved it already.
