Obviously I want to avoid cutting the sheet back to the nearest joist. Thanks!

Re: Structafloor/subfloor laying question 3600x800 sheets. 3May 31, 2024 12:40 am As above, you will need to trim your sheet to land on the joist, also make sure you are running your length at right angles to the joists We are Expert Consultant's, and we are here to help. Jimbo73 I would use heaps of adhesive on each sheet and screw rather than nail. use as many as you like cheers Simeon 1 4440 XCEM Alpha flooring seems to relatively new and I could not found any reviews.
