I have just installed a new kitchen and the last part to go in has been my washing machine (built in).
The flooring in the kitchen is floorboards, nailed onto joists with approx two foot gap to the ground underneath.
I always knew there was a certain amount of 'give' in the floor, but when the washing machine gets up to full spin, there is rediculous vibrations which i can only imagine is not good for the units, sink and worksurface joints and fittings that surround the washing machine...... also the noise is a pain!
If i can get the machine off the floor joist somehow i am thinking that this will reduce the problem!
Can anyone help me on this one with some experience of this or a way of solving the problem?
Thanks
