Wiring closet floor

Nothing is level about the floor in the back room. upon scraping the old tiles up two layers of hard wood floor were dicovered each layer had been so warm out that groves had been warn into the flooring where years of walking back and forth had worn the boards to half their original thickness. when the the tiles were set over the hard wood flooring attemps in leveling out the large foot traffic groves were made by filling in the gaps with masonite. years latter the masonite broke down & cause the severly uneven floor.



Tearing up the old layers of warn flooring discovered the hack job done to the sub floor by the plumbers. quite a bit of the sub floor will need replacing. also orginal entrance to basement was discovered.
