Just a curiosity really. I saw some people doing a flooring job in an old house that is now an office.
On the third floor, they put plywood down, then screed, then adhesive for carpet tiles (or could be vinyl.. I didn't see the final layer).

It just struck me that sometimes you need to get under floorboards, to get to wiring and pipes and stuff, but they've kind of turned it into a solid floor now.

is this normal?

Having said that, the place has trunking everywhere, and a lot of exposed CH piping, so maybe there isn't much of anything under the floorboards.

Floorers often don't care what is underneath, they just want a good finish!
