Caerphilly: Floor Joist (Replacement/Sistering) (ended)

Floor Joist (Replacement/Sistering)

I have recently noticed excessive vibration across the kichen floor when the washing machine is on. As such i have been into the cellar below the kitchen to investigate and noted that 3 of the floor joist at the outer wall point were rotting and had appeared to have dropped slightly due to the degradation of the wood.. The joists are vibrating when washing machine spin function is operating..... I have sppken with a relative/builder but he lives some distance away and advised the cheapest option is for sistering the joints and treating the rot on the existing as opposed to renewing which is more costly and disruptive. The intention is to move within the next 12 -18 months and therfore the cheaper fix option is preferred. Please confirm earliest available date
