[QUOTE="LesD, post: 203429"] My plan is to take the floor up and let the plywood in but now I have met the next snag. There is about an inch of joist protruding on both sides making it necessary to cut the old floorboards flush with the walls and immediately above each joist. How to do this is the problem. I can't get in that close to the wall with my circular saw or my jig saw so I have been contemplating lots of drilled holes and then chiselling through between each hole but this is going to very time consuming! Any suggestions? I tried with my 1" wide chisel without any drilled holes but it is now so blunt after removing tiles, tile cement, grout etc. that it hardly made a mark! The plywood is slightly thicker than my existing floorboard so will have to fit right up to the walls to support the edges of my tray otherwise I would cut the old boards flush with the joists and fit a sturdy support on to the sides of them to fix the plywood to.
