BIG MAC Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Next on the list will be the woodshed ....it has a large hayloft greniere to which the floor is a bit gash and wormy but expensive to replace.The cobble floor looks very sound. I am thinking of pressure washing the floor and levelling it with scalpings to a formation (except at the edges which I will leave free for about 150mm all round. then blind with sand and lay a 1200 gauge DPM ran up the walls and two layers of 6mm mesh. Cast a slab in readymix presto one floor. My idea is to build in aereated block an internal wall all the way around and tie it into the existing stone walls using stainless threaded rod drilled into the stone and chemfixed.The new walls could pick up on the chamber joists above which would allow the removal of the old irons driven into the stonework which currently hold the floor up.What do we reckon as an idea and would I need any permits to do it?
