Is insulating beneath my suspended ground floor a DIY task?
A. It depends upon the age and type of your floorboards and your skill at carpentry. The wider the boards, the older they usually are. They may also not have been disturbed before, so lifting them is to be avoided or carried out with the utmost care. Other floorboards can tolerate being lifted provided that a skilled carpenter undertakes the work and that the boards are replaced in their original position.
