Have a Weyroc floor fitted over wood joists in a bedroom ... parents
house built circa 1980
Floor is damaged in 2 places (legs of bed had gone through).... dont
really want to re-sheet whole floor, particularly as fitted wardrobes
over part of the floor.
initially thought it would be easy ... make a square cut-out back flush
with joist and fix a bearer timber on joist, to hold edge of new board,
and screw some supports round underside of other 3 sides to form a frame
to fit new piece in.
This plan stuttered today when I measured thickness of the Weyroc
...its 19.4mm. So presumably an imperial 3/4€ sheet.
Anybody know if you can still get 3/4€ sheet ....
If not can you get 20mm as if I have to but 22mm that is not going to
sit flush without a lot of extra work.
I am sure 19mm chipboard is made..mmm...no, but 18mm is best option
with 1.5mm shims..glue it in
