We have no intention of changing the use.
Blocking up a garage door.
The garage door has been broken for 10 years and actually has shelving units in front of it.
Blocking up the garage door makes a huge difference in the workshop both in terms of noise and heat insulation.
The next stage in the process of converting garage to a modelling space is to block off my garage door to eliminate draught etc.
However embarrassingly when coming to measure up for materials ive realis.
My plan was to build a stud frame fill with insulation and plaster board both sides.
We know the footings are good enough as it s a 2 storey building.
We have an attached double garage with bedrooms above looking to block up one of the garage doors with brick and add a window and or a door.

Eventually i wish to render the outside.
I am going to use 100mm blocks and will put damp course in at the bottom and i guess there s no harm in adding another where the existing one is just to be over cautious.
It also gives me a really strong wall to hang stuff on.
It s currently covered in stone which is pretty solidly set onto the garage.
