Hi,
The existing concrete subfloor in my Victorian house hallway has broken up and needs replacing. I've removed as many of the original tiles as possible (mainly black and white 2 inch by 2 inch) and would like to re-use them once a new subfloor is in place. I've had some quotes and advice about the subfloor, but these are split between either re-instating the concrete subfloor or removing all of the existing concrete and replacing with wooden joists and plywood. The argument for joists and plywood are that it allows circulation of air (although there is currently no evidence of damp), but I'm concerned that it won't feel solid enough.
Any views that would help me make a decision would be very welcome.
Thanks,
Dominic
