Beautifully done and explained. You didn't mention getting all that wood debris out from under the house so the hungry little termites won't have anything to munch on. If the subfloor material is that rotten, I'd spread out a tarp before demolishing. It would be really hard to rake that stuff all out of there before putting down the vapor barrier. Even the smallest amount of wood/construction debris left under the house is an invite to the little critters. Thanks for the video.

We just finished framing repair on a job, 750 SQ ft of demo flooring and subfloor on a 117 year old house. The kitchen had 7 layers of flooring over subfloor. The original subfloor had been cut into, modified, and the structure of the house was destroyed when someone in the 60's added a spiral staircase. After using 24000 lbs of jacks to raise the fallen cantilever bay window, we installed c-channel steel onto sistered floor joists to reinstate the structural integrity of the home. Altogether at this point, we have collected approximately $80K for the space, which includes change orders for illegal wiring, all kinds of framing irregularities and issues, and adding a bunch of nice touches. Total project is a full gut including exterior wall un-racking, collar tie installation, top plate to rafter connections, joist installation, new subfloor, attic insulation removal and mold remediation, new attic insulation, all walls drywalled to level 4, new kitchen, all walls painted, new lighting, new flooring, redevice, man a ton of others. Total project budget is well over $325K. Get into the trades y'all and start a company. You're missing out.

I'm doing a project very similar, I find the Harbor Freight "Toe kick saw" (only $75.00) works great to get cut along the walls, gets about 3/8" from the wall, than use a multi-tool such as the Ryobi brushless cordless to get close to the corners.. Yes, you'll still need the circular saw for some of it, like cutting planks into smaller pieces to make it easier to get them out. I also found that a recipicating saw worked the best to cut close to the wall where there was a plumbing pipe in the way. So basically you need them all, but to use a circular saw around the walls will get you only about 1 1/2" from the edge. Oh yeah, and do NOT use a Dremel "Ultra Saw" (aprox. $129) as the blade got super hot and dull after only about 5 minutes, and yes I took it back than got the Toe Kick Saw, which costed much less.

One small improvement you could do. I see you laid out blocking 4' from the existing floor. That helped carry the edge of the first row of plywood you laid down. Why not continue and do that in the middle of the 8' section you left open (on the next row of plywood). Even if it wasn't 8', it would help. We all typically have lots of scrap wood laying around perfect for blocking. That blocking actually carries the weight better as it distributes the load around the floor (takes out any bouncing you might feel). As long as the blocking fits tight. That is very important. I do this every 4' and the floor is left feeling solid as a rock. Additionally, I would have put a small beam under the joists in the middle of that floor to further strengthen the joists. Maybe you did that. I just couldn't see it. Code might be one thing. I like to have a solid kitchen floor and you have the option of doing that. I didn't see the plastic on the ground. That would be a good time to do this, as the floor being open makes it easy. The plastic should roll up the side of foundation and sealed if possible.

Agree, I've installed floors over 10 years. The subfloor will expand and contract as one so really a perimeter gap is all that is necessary. Never had a repair on subfloor and I've done a lot.

I'd agree with not having them. If you use tongue and groove this will bind the whole floor as one. Glue the tongue and groove and lay the sheets down on the joist with an acoustic tape on top of the joists. No squeaky floor.

You forgot to show how to get into the corners and which tool is best for that. Also how to remove rotted wood under the base plate.

I know how to do the subfloor in the manner you have shown. However, what if it is rotten under the walls or exterior walls?

Ripping up all those nasty, moldy wood without masks? Not that wise choice. But on the other hand you guys made an awesome job! Thanks for sharing!
