Please could any builders / structural engineers give me their opinion on this. My house is not a flat, but a normal semi with floorboards.
The previous occupant moved the washing machine into an upstairs airing cupboard in order to make space for a dishwasher in the kitchen. It is really convenient to have the washing machine upastairs, but I wonder whether the spin cycle could do any long-term damage to the house. Indeed, the upstairs floorboards are very creaky, but this could be unrelated. Could the walls and ceilings be at risk? Obviously, the ground floor of a house is different and can withstand the vibration. But what about upstairs?
