    Coming from a cold country it always amazes me how cold, humid and uninsulated many garages and workshops are in the uk :) it wasn't very thick insulation but roof insulation is really effective. Next step would be a small heat pump, so nice to have in the garage :)

    Shame you only built it single skin with no cavity but I know it was done for maximum width inside. I built 1 3 years ago, fully insulated roof, insulated door, insulated cavity and breeze blocks and it still condensed up in winter. I think I should have insulated the floor under the concrete as I think the cold rises up out of the ground. I’ve had to put a small heater and a dehumidifier in over winter months.

    make a wood frame around the roller shutter, + make 2 lift out insulation "doors", makes a hell of a difference, especially with grinder noise,. use some old roof grab-handles on them, 10 seconds to lift them out, best thing i ever done [says the neighbour]

    Few bits, wear a mask with this stuff the dust is bad and gets on your chest. And rather than doing the tape in small sections, just peel a load back, stick it down and rip the tape but not the backing. makes it easier to peel and stops it curling up.
