Greetings to all,
I've just started renovating my bathroom and have discovered the 30 odd year old chipboard floor has had it. I plan to replace it with some 18mm Moisture Resistant flooring but here's the snag.
The existing floor continues under the stud wall into the bedroom so I can't see a way to renew the whole sheet without taking the wall down. Can I cut the floor about 6" from the wall then insert some 4X2" battens between the joists for the old & new floor to rest on or is there a better way?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Rusty Scot
