And replace the sill plate as needed. Got a contractor friend who will
inspect the work and put it under his E & O Ins for a fee? THat would
shift the liability. Or set up a C corp with your BIL or some such,
hire the corp to do the work. (You work for the corp.) Get estimates,
bills and receipts form the corp. As soon as the house is sold,
dissolve the corp.
If that crap chipboard floor was not rotted, you could just jack up the
joist, put a sill inder like you did, make concrete piers to support a
permanent Sill, (beam) replace the sill plate and you'd be good.
Can you replace 2-4 tiles around the edge of the room with a contrasting
tile so you son't need to rip out all the tile? But as someone (Mitch?)
said, the tile should have concrete backer board underneath.
I did a room with tile for 3' on 3 sides, then put carpet in the
center. That way there was no seam in the carpet. I didn't want to sew
a carpet seam.

Jack it up, replace rotted joists, set it level, rip out rotted
subfloor and replace.
Then put down proper underlayment and redo tiles.
Sounds like fun, eh?
Mitch.
