Hi - this video illustrates my problem pretty well: http://sendvid.com/1qt1mx0w Also attached two pictures to thread.
Basically my floor is buggered at the crossover between my living room & hall. My living room subfloor is the original Victorian floorboards, while in the hallway it's a ply subfloor. (The ply and the top layer floorboards were installed two years ago - not yet sure if the latter is floating, nailed or glued.)
What are my options for getting this fixed? I don't care about sloping as my hallway joists slope inwards anyway (should have had them levelled when I had the chance). But I can't live with this movement & squeaking anymore!
Will lifting the boards be difficult if they're nailed / glued? How about drilling through the affected board and either injecting levelling compound or clamping it down somehow?
Not gonna attempt this myself but want to know my options before getting a professional round
Cheers for any help
