Default Floor Spongy under LINO


wrote in message
...
My neighbour's floor beside bathtub which feels soft under lino.

SMALL area affected. He is NOT a computer literate person & asked me
to post this.

I cautioned him not to bath but to shower as I feel floor joists might
be compromized.
For pix of bathroom go to:

then click on photos.

I dont mind helping him fix it but does anyone have similar problem?
What is best way to remedy rotten floor joists? Thanks in advance.


The best way to fix joists are to sister them and cut out any rot.

If the place is for sale, he needs to get some better photos and fix the
fence. Showing three cars outside blocking the house is not very impressive
to perspective buyers.
