Ocieplanie - External Insulation
What a great spell of weather we're having this year in Poland! I was lucky enough to be out of the country, back in Scotland, throughout most of July when Poland experienced quite a rainy spell of weather. Throughout August and September it has been glorious!
The weather has helped me with the overall building, because we have managed to get started with the second 'skin' of the house.
Here in Poland a type of polystyrene brick is used to insulate the outside of the house and my builders have started to line the outside walls with a layer 12cm thick. First a glue is applied to the 'brick' and then it is placed on the wall to set, with the walls being drilled and a type of rawplug inserted. This is then completed by inserting a long type of nail to pin the surfaces together
Early days still, but it's coming along!
