It is in a basement, so the subfloor is a concrete pour. I would need to bolt down some 2X4s for the base.
There should be 2 main components of the bar, a fixed traditional walk behind section for serving mixers, wines and such, and a mobile/semi-fixed keezer ala-Jester. The concern around the beer getting into the carpets is real, but we plan to redo the floor down there down the road, it is a multi color berbur carpet, not to stylish. I would want to redo the bar section in either hardwood, or laminant.
Thanks for the feedback. It is really what I though I should do, just wanted to confirm.
