Hello!
Our Victorian flat still has what appears to be it's original solid wood floors ... great in theory, but they are in bad shape with splits, dips, protrusions, gaps and drafts ... the works! Fixing these floors up seems like an onerous task so we are wondering if we could get a decent floor by simply floating some engineered boards overtop of it.
Is putting in a floating engineered floor overtop of old solid wood floors as easy as putting down a good overlay and fitting the boards ontop? Would this heal most or all wounds of our existing floors?
Any advice appreciated as we need to fix up our place for a new baby!
