New floors with a crawl space
I have just purchased a home with a crawl space. THe old subfloor is a type of particle board and it sags and has moisture in it from prior leaks. I am replacing any bad areas. While the whole house is currently carpeted (linoleum in Bathrooms) I am hoping to put down some laminate flooring, ceramic tile and carpet.
If I remove a section of floor down to the joists - do I need to put something between the joists and the plywood floor? Because it is a crawlspace only 12" above a dirt floor do I need special plywood. I know for the laminate flooring I will be placing an underlayment. For the tile can I just put the mortar on top of the plywood or do I need to put some underlayment there (the house is a 30 year old Manufactured home on a permanent block foundation so settling should all be done.
Any other suggestions would be helpful (I have done all of the above on concrete slab and on a house with a full basement but not on this crawlspace.)
