I have just discovered a leaking bathroom basin and water has got under the vinyl planking - the water has travelled an area roughly four feet by two feet as there is moisture under the planks when I pull them up.
The actual subfloor seems non porous - maybe plywood treated with something? very sold and matt finish. I can see no mold and the leak could have happened any time over past few months.
So what is my best solution?
Just spray the subfloor with something or would I have to replace that section?
Can water get under these planks with just plain condensation or would it have been from the leak?
If I do replace the subfloor are what kind of material is best?
Ideally I would want to put vinyl planks down again or maybe sheet vinyl.
