Replacing Chipboard Floor - is OSD better option
Posted: Mon May 11, 2009 11:49 am
Hi,
I am replacing part of a T&G 18mm floor in kitchen previously damaged by water from leaking pipes.
Just at the stage of laying new boards and intended to go for 18mm chipboard. Would 18mm external OSD be a better choice ie more water resistant? If so, would I need to treat it before laying?
I plan to cover floor with hardboard and lay lino tiles on top.
TIA
