Pretty much at the half way point of my own bathroom refit (all the walls are tiled now, power shower plumbed in and rad fitted).
The plumber had to hack out some of the bodge job flooring that the old house owner has stuck down (a bit of chipboard and other random bits of wood in one corner of the room).
Now my original plan was to screw down the floor boards and then overboard it with 18mm ply and screw that down ever 6" ...... but now im thinking would it be a good Idea just to whip out all the floor boards and just board out with 18mm ply ?
This would be better in the sense that I wouldn't be raising the height of the room but would it be strong enough ?
I would be using 300x300 8mm thick ceramics with flexible Bal adhesive and grout.
Or should I just replace the damaged corner of the room and stick to overboarding it all ??
