Sub floor

Jul 15, 2003 2 Replies

Please Help I Just find out that mine front door was leaking for same time and the sub floor under the ceramic tile is rotten. How to resole the issue. Can I cut out part of the sub floor in the foyer and replace with new piece or it is not good idea,



Thanks



Tom


You can certainly just replace the part of the subfloor that is damaged. You will need to make sure the joists themselves are sound however. You can scab on to the joists if needed to support the new subfloor (and 3/4" plywood is ok for repairing the subfloor).

Thanks to all for the info.
