Insulation/panelling a shed

JohnHewes:
Don’t forget to do the floor!
I have 1” polyurethane with 25mm plywood over it, a huge improvement over the old cement.
You can also screw things to it easily for temporary fixings, or permanent.
Stops the cold coming up and keeps the feet warm.

That is interesting, do you fit your lathe direct to the concrete, or is it also stood on the insulation?

Johnw:
I would suggest Kingspan/Celotex and cutting to fit between the framing.It is best to foil tape the edges and use a vapour barrier. It would be much easier for an apex roof, and there would not be a need to ply leaving the frame visible.

JohnHewes:
Hi, TT, I have the lathe screwed to the ply floor, which is fixed to the cement floor through the insulation with frame fixings.
