Remove the damaged section Remove the damaged section, then nail two 2 × 4 blocks between the joists, centered under the cut edges for added support. If possible, nail the blocks from below. Otherwise, toenail them from above using 10d nails. Measure the cut-out section Measure the cut-out section, then cut a patch to fit. Use material that’s the same thickness as the original subfloor. Fasten the patch to the joists and blocks using 2" deck screws spaced about 5" apart.
