Hi all.
I need to convert an outbuilding into a usable room. The building is
very solid, as it used to be a utility room (150 years old). It has
old broken floor tiles on it at the moment, and is very uneven. It has
about 40 mm drop off to one side. I need to level this floor somehow.
It is a rented house, so it doesn't have to last too long and I need
to keep the cost down. What is the best and cheapest way for me to lay
a floor?
I thought about laying a wooden floor onto some joists, but this will
be tricky with the uneven floor. Or laying down some concrete and then
chipboard covering, but I've never worked with this much concrete
before. If I go the concrete route, what is the cheapest way to
install damp proof? Can I just coat the concrete with bitchumin?
Loads of questions, but you get the drift....low cost and ease
Does anyone have any suggestions?
