Insulate wall which is half buried

[valiant]

Surely the easiest solution is to jack the house up a few feet?

No damp problems then!

I'm going to regret posting these....

But went for foil backed 1.5inch insulation, small air-gap between the foil and outer wall and then moisture-resistant drywall (got a job lot as had to do a couple of bathrooms and another room (which may or may-not have had damp problem in the past)...

I'm sure there might be some critique of how I've done it but I guess we'll see how it turns out a few years down the road!

Looks neat. But if as you say there is no damp problem, why the moisture resistant boarding?
