Hi. I got sheets of dodo mat from ebay. Plastic bottle insulation from b&q and carpet from vandalised thru ebay again. Used a lot of dodo mat but i did cover everything. I bought a box of 20 sheets to start with as i did it in stages and so i wasnt left with too many unused. Not sure if iv used 2 or 3 boxes to date but iv got half a box left and just the front doors to do. Hope this helps.

Yeh the floor and the roof so far. Just the doors to do then its all done. I did everything i could cover in dodo mat. Inside the barn doors, the rear floor, all the sides and the rear roof. Then carpeted the rear and made a roof panel with leds round the edge and led spotlights in the roof panel.

I did inside the back doors, the roof, the arches, the floor and every little gap I could find of single skin I could get my hands into. I ended up using 80 sheets.
Got it off eBay for around £65

What ones the moisture barrier ?

So am I right in saying use the recycled plastic in all the cavity’s then use the sound deadening then the floor use the rolls of foam with a silver foil then just carpet everything after ?

Yes use that to fill the cavities with alloy foil tape over all holes, dodo mat, get a heat gun and warm the sheet first, then roller down with a plastic decorating roller then I used silver backed foam sticking down over the top and finally carpet. Get some clips to hold it roughly at the right height start in the middle and work outwards

Also tape down all edges with the alloy tape before carpet
