In 2002, we added on another bedroom, livingroom, & bathroom to our home near Houston. The house is on blocks above the ground. I installed 2x8 floor joists with support @ 8' OC, then used chicken wire under the joists to keep the dogs out of the 6" R-22 fiberglass insulation installed between the joists, vapor barrier towards the floor. I then installed 3/4" CDX plywood directly to the floor joists. This was my work surface and we caught some rain during the dry-in period. (about 2 months) Then when we were ready, after texture and painting of the drywall, I installed 1/2" AC plywood over the subfloor to recieve the flooring. We chose an Armstrong peel and stick vinyl tile to lay over this 1/2" plywood. I prepared all the joints and nail holes w/floor stone. The room is cooled by a central A/C heat pump and has been kept around 70 degrees year round. The 1/2" subfloor has bubbled up all over. I have repaired some of the places w/screws. I need some help with this.
