Hi, I'm a DIY'er and currently doing a loft convertion on my bungalow. Have installed new floor joists and completed roof insulation, Building regs compliant.
Before I start erecting stud walls I need to know if the flooring should go down first or the stud walls go directly on top of new floor joists? I assume that the flooring should be done after I have erected stud wall frames and have completed elect and plumbing first fixes?
Any advice?

its easier to do the flooring first.It difficult to manhandle floorboards around studding

Thanks for response. First fixes then floors will go in followed by stud walls.
