By a strange coincidence (not at all influenced by this thread) I've just bought 60odd sqm of old maple sports/village hall flooring and am planning on laying it throughout the ground floor in a Victorian terrace that has in the distant past had the whole ground floor filled with concrete. I've brought the floor level with plenty of self levelling compound. Everything appears totally bone dry (surprising considering the state of the roof!) and theres a plastic dpm under the concrete. The concrete itself is about 10cm thick with rubble below that.
Any advice on how to lay it? The boards are approx 20mm thick, t&g, 60mm wide and varying lengths up to 3m or so. My plan so far is to just use flexible flooring adhesive and laying it straight onto the concrete. Does this sound sensible?
