Hard to tell from the pic. i took out everything down to the joists. the plywood was 3/8 and it broke in lots of places white removing the hardwood. so we put down 3/4 - good stuff and glued it down before screwing it. then put 3/4 solid hardwood on top.i also had to plane down the area where the joist meet since it was buckling and pushing the subfloor by about 1 inch at the wall. i did that myself and it took 6 hrs on my knees to do the 20+ joists.. i am not afraid of sweat equity. i need to change that asap!!
