I currently have carpet in the bedroom but am looking to pull this up and replace with solid wood floors.
I have a separate quote for the flooring but have been getting builders around to quote me on removing the existing flooring and insulating between the joist, replacing the radiator with a cast iron radiator (and repositioning about a metre to the left) and then laying the new floor.
First quote to come in is £2100 +vat (this excludes the solid oak flooring)
Does this sound reasonable? I am in greater London (zone 5).
Another builder who is yet to send through his quote said that insulating between the joist (ground floor) would not be necessary and he would just lay an insulating board once he pulled everything up.
Has anyone done something similar and how much did you pay?
Cheers
