But not from here.
Ive heard of rockwook but never thought much about it. Looked it up. It's made out of stone wool! Now I might be a dim, ditzy, blonde, but even I know you can't shear a stone.
I'm off to research.

Thanks TMTT, I found several like that. Fascinating stuff.

Last few days I’ve been doing more sound proofing insulation. Bathroom & hallway are 95% done. Just a few bits need doing by someone who isn’t vertically challenged. Or something else needs doing before I can finish, but mostly because I’m short.

Spare bedroom ceiling is nearly fully insulated. It’s noticeable already. Not quite so echoey in the house and we’ve still got a lot to do.
A friend came round today and helped us get the MVHR unit in the attic and hung on the wall. [attachment=8573] . We can finish connecting the up soon.
RE: The build - Small chilli - 19-11-2025
Today I put up a couple of bits of insulation. Then got annoyed because for every bit I put up now. I have to move 10 things out of the way. So I downed tools and went to the attic. Moved lots of stuff around to make space. Then started moving stuff from all over the house to the attic. Just stopped for a little break. Will be back at it in a minute. Bob will be needed for the heavy and bigger boxes. He’s past a few up to me already.
