Hi, please see attached images. I need to stop these areas being draughty during winter. How can I do this myself?
Im not keen on the foamy stuff to fill gaps so wondered if I could get any soft insulation that I can cut and fix to the walls inside these cupboards to stop the draughts.

indeed. Your gas cupboard may be only be single brick thickness. Ie built into the cavity that wont help. Be carefully building up insulation around the eleci cupboard don't want anything in there to overheat.0
