approx cost for replacement of rotton joists on ground floor

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.58 PM

Please could someone advise me on the potential cost of replacing joists on the ground floor of a 1900ish solid brick house. There is no underfloor ventilation (which will be rectified) and the floorboards are a little uneven in one room. I'm getting a structural engineer in to inspect, but I just need a rough idea of how much any replacement might cost. Am I looking at a few hundred or a few thousand to put it right? Replace all joists: Room is approx 3.5 x 3.7m, whole ground floor is approx 3.5 x 7.8m Replace 5 joists: Or is it unlikely that only a few will need to replaced, if one is rotton, will the rest be? Thanks

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

without looking at the issue it is really impossible to give a price, is their any infestation that may need treated. personally would budget a few thousand any thing under will be a bonus. good luck Alex
