Suspended Floor Recommendations.

Tuco88 · 2023-06-15 16:44:25

Hi All, I am planning to insulate my suspended timer floor with Earthwool and a Barrier membrane held in place with battens along the joists. To finish it, what’s considered best. Plywood, OSB or Traditional T&G boards again?

T&G glued and screwed, unless you can be bothered installing blocking to support the edges.
