Floor joists

Seems that the leak in the upstairs bathroom had rotted the floor and the subfloor in there. I had to cut it out and will replace.

Whilst i was at it i noticed that the floor joists had been butchered and lashed-up to allow for the sewer pipe so that had to be fixed. I re-used the wood i had taken from the old handrail and installed it as a joist, then connected across with smaller sections. Should be strong enough now for the toilet and the new floors.

Finished joists, new pieces in place.
Half way done
