yes the stuff that looks like tiles

[Guest dogeon]

i had some spare laminate floor tiles so i divided the hen and cocks also very easy to scrape clean

I would put more vents in the front at floor level and some at the back just under the eaves if not already done

its tounge and groove

its tounge and groove

 

Easiest way to keep it strong is put a piece of plywood at least 2" bigger all round than the vent inside the tounge and groove, then cut hole out the size of the vents with a jig saw. You can attach wire to the insie aswell for extra security

that sounds a good idea but do i use one 9" vent per loft or do the whole length ie 16 foot im not sure on how much ventalation is needed or is to much too drafty

Put as much as you can on the south facing panels, this stops the wet westerly and the cold northerly winds affecting the loft

oh thats good as my lofts are facing directly south i put them that way as i fly from the south and thought they would trap easier

I put external plywood the same size as the vents on the outside as well and put a drip strip on top to stop any rain being blown in
