I have had an engineered wood floor (20mm, 180mm wide) wood floor fitted to my lounge, but have realised three-quarter way through that the floor is bouncing dramatically in places.
Underneath is a sound proofing system from http://www.soundservice.co.uk/soundproofing_floors.html involving two layers of SMB5 and another product called R10. My installer told me that it would be fine to lay the floor on top of the R10.
The room is in an old Victorian conversion and there has been some movement in the past. This means the floor is very uneven. My installer did not prepare the floor in any way prior to the sound proofing product going down. Nor did he 'pack' underneath boards. I'm now faced by the possibility of tearing up several boards and then raising the rest as a mass to deal with the subfloor beneath.
Does anyone have any idea of who I can contact to help me deal with the subfloor? Or can you give me any alternatives?
Many thanks
