spongy floorboards

[naebothernoo]

When preparing the kitchen floor prior to tiling I found that the floorboard under the sink, against the exterior wall was soft and spongy about a couple of inches in. I have cut the rotten board out, but am wondering if this will be enough to prevent any further rotting, or will I have to take any more action to prevent any more problems. I think that the rot was caused by a dripping joint which I have repaired.
thanks for any advice

Providing the rest of the floorboard is dried then you should be okay.

or will I have to take any more action to prevent any more problems. I think that the rot was caused by a dripping joint which I have repaired.

Providing you're happy it was the dripping joint was the problem then again there's no worry

Thanks that makes me feel better, yes I checked the joists and they were ok. But for peace of mind I painted them with a ronseal anti fungus hardener(it says on the tin) I 'm a belt and braces kind of guy. thanks for the help
