I'm replacing the rotten floorboards upstairs. The joists are approx 2 feet (60 cm) apart and the new floorboards are
2 cm thick. Are the joists too wide apart? Would the floorboards flex too much with that spacing?In principle I could fasten some extra joists between the existing ones to take the weight. Is this worth doing? Any other suggestions please?
The area will become a bedroom and bathroom (with shower only, no heavy bath).
