My wife and I have more or less decided that we're going to have a sun room built onto the back of our house. Though, I haven't confirmed it I don't think I will need planning permission.
I read that another user on this site has had trouble keeping his sunroom warm in the winter and this has made me a little worried that I could ru ninto problems down the line. I'm not in the construction industry and have a relatively limited knowledge of succecssful building projects so I was wondering if anyone out there had any basic tips on how to acheive a functional working sunroom (i.e. best window type to use, best insulation type, radiator size etc..).
Are there any pitfalls I should avoid (like using rockwool)??
Also, I'm in Cork - can anyone recommend a good builder who won't rip me off!!?
Thanks.
