  • Hey all, I am replacing all the floorboards in the house (its tiny) and one room has a 60mm step down which I would like to bring up to level.

    The existing floor is pine timber board over joists with subfloor. My idea was to put 40mm timber strips inline with existing joists (new floorboards are 20mm) but leave the pine floorboards in place, then board over the top and put some 40mm insulation board in between the new "fake" 40mm joists.

    Is this a really silly idea...

  • Sounds like it would be a massive pain in the arse if you ever needed to get under the original boards - electrics or heating?
