Hi,
I'm renovating my home and I'm not allowed to do plumbing in my state. But I am allowed to do all the demo/repair work to the floor and walls. My question - I found a lot of subflooring rot and floor joist rot in a bathroom that's over a crawlspace that's in great shape (clean, few spiders, concrete floor, dry, warm, no dead bodies, and 3' high). The crawlspace is going to be easy to work in for any plumber.

My plan is I pull up the sub flooring, repair the joists and then put the new sub flooring down but not fasten it down. When the plumber comes, we pull up the subflooring, work on the drain pipes and plumbing then put the subflooring down, fasten it and they continue on with the rest of the rough-in.

Is that a good way to go? Seems like it would be easier to do your drain and line work "standing" in a crawlspace without a "floor over your head".

Thoughts?
