Sub-floors cause more problems for wood flooring than anything else.
For example, most moisture problems can be traced back to the sub-floor and dusty sub-floors will give adhesion problems.
If the sub-floor is correctly primed, the sub-floor will be strengthened, dust problems solved, adhesion will be improved, and if the correct primer is used, moisture problems can be corrected. Wars will cease, the sun will shine and builders will turn up on time.

BUT... before you replace the top, wipe any excess from the neck and lid of the tub. If not you will need a large pair of mole grips to remove it next time, it sets like concrete!!
