Wife is complaining of cold despite thermals, gas fire on etc. I now need to buy/fit the replacement radiators to remove when the plasterer finally turns up.

Me still in T shirt, but did put on a wooly jumper for an hour this morning until the sun came up.
I've no roof on at the moment - feeling it!

Can you fille the gaps with thermal sealant or construction foam until you're ready?
