I'd put in a noggin across the opening beneath the threshold from joidt to joist. Thiat will stabilise the joists carry the wall (and later the door casing) as well as giving you somewhere to rest the joints between boards
Screws for the floorboard should be 4.5 x 50mm chipboard or flooring screws or similar.
If needs be use s hand saw to do.the last bit of trimming flush to.the wall face. Multitool can do a similar job
Great thanks I'll get cracking today.
In terms of where joists are too close to the walls where I am unable to get a bolt through/access to tighten, doi just use a few screws instead of bolts in this instance?
Cheers
