My utility room has been extended by about four feet and will become my Home Office. Both the old area and the new area have a concrete floor. Neither have any signs of dampness but the old floor has been painted with floor paint. There is no flaking on this section of the floor.
There is a slight difference in height between the two concrete floors. For which I will use a good self-leveling compound across the whole area.
As at a later date the HO may become a down stairs bathroom, I would rather not glue the blocks to the concrete floor.
Therefore, can I put down 7.5mm or 9mm thick tongue and grove plywood and use that as a substrate to glue the blocks to. The T&G joints would be glued.
My blocks are 240mm x 60mm x 10mm white Oak. The plywood is going to be left laying on the floor and will not be screwed or glued to the floor.
This would give me a total floor thickness of 17.5mm or 19mm, which would make a solid floor and if later on the floor did need to be removed, there would be no bits of glue all over the floor.
