Wooden floors may look the part but they can cause potentially a host of other mod cons. Consider this carefully when the floorboards are already up!

Know When To Give In!

Original floorboards can be a beautiful thing to lovers of period properties, but they aren’t always the most practical when it comes to modern living. They tend to shrink and expand due to central heating, rendering crack-fi lling pointless. Without insulation, you will fi nd drafts impossible to avoid and thus rooms costly to heat. If you do want to honour the original boards, make sure a carpenter removes them for any work, as plumbers tend to butcher them!
