Lightbulb Covering a existing floor?
In the upstairs hallway of a rehab, alot of floor boards need to be replaced but it seems like it would be easier to just lay some plywood down and just let them carpet it like that. What do you think?

Thanks
Stewart

I'd have to see it before I reccomended anything.
Your description leaves much to be desired.

If the extra height of the new plywood won't create a domino effect of more problems to deal with, such as varying heights and trip hazards in the adjacent rooms or baseboard and door trim issues, I don't see any issues.
