I want to insulate my ground floor floor. Currently there is just floorboards, empty under the floorboards, underlay and laminate flooring. The ground floor is freezing cold in winter.
I had a floorer by yesterday, he advised to keep the laminate floor rather than lifting it, and adding an underlay with thermal silver foil layer, and solid wood flooring on top. He charges £15 per square meter. His labour will therefore be £660. Does this sound reasonable? He also recommended ordering from flooringdirect.co.uk
How thick should a good floor be? 90mm? 125 mm? 150mm? Laquered or oiled?
