    Hi; Using the 4x8 sheets of thick plywood sub-flooring is the best way to go; the glue in it will kill the wood worms that try to invade it so it will last 'forever'. Good Luck!

    Would MDF be suitable or chipboard? We are looking for a cheap replacement. Maybe ply is more expensive??

    8 x 4 sheets will be fine. We did that at my daughters house. Use thick sturdy ply if possible.
