I have torn down my bathroom to make way for a new one that will replace the one from the 60s-70s.
The old bathroom was 30 cm above the rest of the house because there was a root cellar underneath.
My plan was to attach two joists along the outer wall and inner partition and place the new floor joists on these with 30 cm centers, but the issue is that the outer wall consists of stone, large natural stones, so it is practically impossible to drill straight and get a good fastening.
Plan number 2 was to build up with leca blocks and place the joists on them, but this is hindered by two sewage pipes running along the outer wall.
An alternative I've considered is building up with narrow leca blocks inside the pipes (about 60 mm) and then reinforcing and filling the void against the outer wall with concrete, but this doesn't feel quite right.
I find it difficult to interpret the image together with your description. What are all these heavy cables doing there? Isn't it only the foundation that consists of cut natural stone? I think it looks like masonry in the background of the image. If you have a natural stone foundation, it may be appropriate to place one or more support beams on the stone and, if necessary, carve into the brick for these.
Hi everyone, the thick cables are floor heating loops that went in the old ceiling of the pantry... quite a few. But I just rebuilt the sewer so that I can fit leca inside the sewer... it might be best to construct a new foundation inside. Thanks for the answer
