There are 3 rooms in our house that have suspended floors and they are cold!!

They also have a laminate flooring finish so taking them up is not an option at this time.

I can however squeeze and I mean squeeze under from an access hatch.

I also have a load of space blanket type insulation rolls.

So my question, is it worth the filth effort to get under there and staple the stuff under the joists?

If also noticed that the heating pipes all run under these floors and have no lagging at all. That along must be costing me a small fortune.

I think ill start with the smallest room and see what kind of difference it makes.

I think the suggestion hear is that if the rest of the room is poorly insulated the floor will make no real difference.

Which is what I was thinking may be the case.
