This made sound daft, feel free to tell me so
I want to remove my laminate flooring and lay ordinary planed edge pine timber boards (not sure what particular type of pine - its the stuff in Keyline, Wicks etc) on top of the boards beneath - I think they are some sort of chipboard, they have a blue/turquoise paint or lacquer)
1. Is that type of pine suitable for flooring, i know its very soft but will it keep it shape etc or do i need proper treated flooring pine of some sort?
2. Do i need to put something between the new pine boards and the boards beneath?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any advice
