Well it would be a decent sized area I would need to replace because I would open the floor up big enough for me to work in. I am not crawling back and forth under the house. Yes I do not know why they used that crappy particle board type crap. If it was not rotten then yes that would make it easier. The wife thinks that doing the pergo flooring in that room only would look stupid. I'm not sure if I agree or not.
