I want to make the garage a more pleasant place to work on my bike and need some unbiased advise.
The garage has a pent roof and is adjoined by another garage with a block wall separating them. Rear wall is single skin brick. Other side wall is single skin brick with the conservatory on the other side.
I already have a partition wall splitting the garage 70/30 with the larger area to the rear and it’s this area I need help with:
1. Interior ceiling, does it need a damp proof layer?
2. Interior walls, what insulation offers the best bang for my buck?
3. Rear wall, the brick is topped by roofing timber (I’d post a picture, but, well, this forum, you know… ) If I fit a window, will it still need a lintel if I take out the bricks up to the timber?
