I have 2 rooms at the back of my garage. The middle room is going to be converted into a day/playroom and for the floor, I am planning on putting in a poly sheet, batons, insulation and then chipboard flooring – followed by carpet/tiles.
I am unsure what I need to do in the room at the very back of the garage as this is going to be converted into a utility room. The floor is concrete throughout. I can’t put insulation in this room as there is a door to the garden and the threshold is very low, only about 25mm. The room does not need to be warm (there is a door between playroom and utility room) – there is not heating in there at the moment but the playroom will have an oil filled radiator of some sort.
I was planning on laying chipboard directly on the concrete but some have said that is not a good idea. Then for cheapness, I thought about putting vinyl flooring directly on the concrete.
Is there anything I haven’t considered? Anything I need to take into account?
