I am hoping someone can help. We are about to have oak flooring put down in a dining room which is part of a ground floor extension completed in 2002. (before we bought the house)
There is a door threshold where the door meets the cavity wall. This has been a bit loose to stand on for the past few months. I lifted it this morning with a view to removing for the new oak floor to run right up to the door.

See pictures. It does not seem right. There is nothing supporting the threshold where it meets the upvc door. It is just resting on the row of bricks. If that makes sense.
My question(s). How can I support the new oak floor and how do I insulate this area. The room ahs always been very cold.
Do i need to refit the threshold? If so, how do I fasten it. It was just glued down to a membrane before which does not seem right.
Thanks
Craig
