I decided that it was time to fix up my house. I have lived in it for a year now and sought out a heloc. When I started to rip off the paneling in two of the rooms in my house I soon discovered that my house used to be only a dining room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. The house had a second livingroom and sunroom added on as well through the years. My house was built in 1950 too. The problem is that there is only that insulation type board nailed to the cinder blocks. So there is no frame or insulation. There is aluminum siding on the outside. So if anyone has any advise or ideas what would be a good and energy efficient fix action, I am all ears. I would also like to raise the ceilings too. The roof used to be flat and then they pitched a new roof over the old one so the flat roof is still there. I think with the proper supports it can be done.
Thanks,
