Man I shot my self in the foot when I glued down some sub floor a few years ago.
My house is 80 to 90 years old and has 3/8" (yes 3/8") thick oak through most of it. The entry way was in bad shape and the floor had to be pulled. I then put 7/16" OSB over the 1x6 sub floor and fastened it with liquid nails adhesive and screws. I'll tell you there is no deflection in that floor.
Today I bought concrete backer for tile as I forgot that I had used adhesive. Now the backer will go back to the store. I think I will just thin set with a membrane and then tile over the OSB.
Why did I use adhesive on the OSB????
