Hello,
We have purchased a 25-year-old house and now want to renovate it for our own use.
The first step will be to replace the roof. It is a half-hipped roof. The house measures 8.99m x 14.55m (without eaves).
Currently, there are 7/14 rafters installed.
My plan is:
This would make the house watertight from the outside again, allowing interior work to continue.
What do you think? Would this meet current standards?
I would appreciate constructive feedback.

My plan is:
- Remove tiles and battens
- Remove old insulation
- Add additional framing with 6/8 (approx. 150mm x 200mm (6 x 8 inches))
- Install 40mm (1.6 inches) wood fiber insulation board
- Counter-batten 3/5 (approx. 75mm x 125mm (3 x 5 inches)) spacing 10cm (4 inches)
- Batten 4/6 (approx. 100mm x 150mm (4 x 6 inches)) spacing 10cm (4 inches)
- New roof covering
This would make the house watertight from the outside again, allowing interior work to continue.
- 200mm (8 inches) compressed mineral wool insulation
- PE foil vapor barrier
- Batten 24/80 (approx. 1 inch x 3 inches)
- Gypsum board
What do you think? Would this meet current standards?
I would appreciate constructive feedback.
Isn't there supposed to be a breathable membrane under the bricks?
By the way, check if you are allowed to dispose of the old insulation wool right now. I heard that insulation older than 2 years is no longer so easy to dispose of. Apparently, there is currently no disposal plan for this.
