[QUOTE="RP14, post: 469239, member: 8443"] I also have an 8x12 box that I want to replace the floor as well as add insulation. Thankfully the floor 2x4 is in good shape but have soft spots where we walk in center mostly. Was my bosses old ice house which was his fathers too (over 40 YO house). They added a second sheet right on top of the old floor which probably sped up the floor rotting, I had it for 6 or 7 years now. Going to rip out the old floor to the joists, maybe add center 2x4 where the walk way is to strengthen that section. Thinking of using 2" silverboard foamboard (white foam) between the joist and add 2x2 boards to hold the foam up and also spray foam the edges for more support. Will be using 3/4" AC2 treated plywood, hopefully the linoleum will stick and the plywood doesn't stink up the place (off-gas). House only gets pulled to the lake and home (35 miles 1 way) once a year with occasional move around lake as needed. Open to suggestions and ideas. TIA [/QUOTE]
