remodeling my 1930's home
tore up flooring to relevel the floors. Doubled up the joists as well.
the room is upstairs and i put soundproofing insulation (johns manville rockwool) in the 2x6 floor joists to help reduce sound transfering to main floor.
is there any reason to add underlayment before reinstalling the original heart pine? or just lay the flooring directly onto the brand new 3/4" subfloor? I don't see any reason for a vapor barrier as it is on second floor and the soundproofing insulation should do way more than an underlayment.
am i missing anything here?
