How much does new joists cost for Edwardian mid-terraced house?
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.29 PM
Looking to install new joists and level the flooring. So thought good start would be to to install new joists and whilst there put in place a damp proof membrane. How much approximately would this cost for floor of 12m x 6m?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

I would suggest looking for a joiner/carpenter. It looks like the website has picked up the keyword “flooring” and posted it in the flooring arena when it’s probably more of a structural issue first especially if it’s involving a new dpm

I would agree with the previous member when he advises it's more of a builders forte. With regard to the dpm this wouldn't normally be required with a joist and overlayed foorboard floor as it is off the subfloor negating any need for it.
Are the present joists rotting?
If so this will need further examination to identify causes.
