Redoing joist and floor boards

Hi
Wondered if any one can give a ball park figure for replacing joists and floorboards on ground floor semi thru lounge 27ft x 11ft the reason being the floor joists have slipped and not even and the existing floor boards are in poor condition having been ripped up previously

    depends on materials and how bad it is, also how much needs replaced or can be releveled.

    Why do the joists need replacing if just slipped? Have them packed up.

    Also, only replace the boards that need it. Waste of money replacing all of them if not needed.

    Costs depend on the actual extent of the work and how easy access will be. Get some people in to quote, no chance of any realisic estimates from a forum for this
