Hiya.
We've decided to replace our timber floors due to a lack of ventilation (and 120 year old VERY rotten joists) with concrete, but our contractor has - shall we say - lost some trust.
We're at the 'hard core' stage, but the floor base which is about a foot deep is a mixture of brick, a large amount of clay (huge lumps of it dug out from extension foundations), and a fairly large amount too of plaster/soot/bits of wallpaper.
A: is this a problem; I suspect so, but I'm struggling to find a definitive answer in order to demand a: money back or b: remedial work or both
B: WHat is the likely outcome to be? We're planning to put down parquet on top.
Many thanks !
