We've had a lot of work done and I'm just about to replace the chipboard flooring in my bedroom. It is like for like replacement. Replacing 22mm thick chipboard.
How essential is glue? We've lived here for the last 14 years (without any issues) and the old chipboard wasn't glued down.
I've got spax screws ready.
Also I was just watching a video to see if I could pick up any tips, and they said that the end of a board should always end on a noggin. There are no noggins between the joists at all. Should I be going to the extra expense and time to fit noggins throughout?
The joists are at 400 centres and the boards ran perpendicular to the joists. The room is 4m square.
Thanks
