Insulating a brick outbuilding

Posted by claire Mortimer, on
Hi, I'm on a mission to turn a brick shed into an office, on a very tight non existing budget. I can turn my hand to most things. It already has electrics and lights etc, as it has been used as a store. I'm going to be using wooden pallet slats (sanded and stained/painted) on the floor and batten the floor to attached these to. My question is, for insulation, can I use old wool blankets / carpet / rugs ? Would it work? and what would the disadvantages be? Any help appreciated. Thankyou
