Bathroom flooring advice

[Unregistered]

I could do with some quick advice please

I have a maisonnette above and shop and the bathroom is directly above their store room with the pipes running through flimsy plasterboard downstairs.

Whoever put the bathroom in has tiled directly onto the floorboards and the noise from downstairs coming through the floor is very loud (and starts at 4.30am)

On top of that, even the smallest splash from the bath finds its way through the cracked grout and drips into the storeroom (causing me grief)


Is there any way I can (get a pro to) cut down the sound coming through, waterproof the flooring a bit and re-tile onto a proper base?


The bathroom is very small, around 2m x 2m, what sort of price would I be looking at for this sort of work?

Hi, the floor will need to come up to be able to waterproof it... and as for the noise, then acoustic methods can be used to aid in lowering this issue.

It should be fairly straightforward, depending on obstructions etc. Basically: empty bathroom, lift floorboards, fix Hush fill or similar, re-fit floorboards, fix Hardie or similar then tile.

Thank you both, that make sense
Would that be something a tiler would do or do I need someone else to do the boarding and then a tiler to finish?
