Greetings All,
Im not new to the forums, just new to being a member. I have found alot of useful info on here, and thank you.
my current project involves a house built in 1947 and attaching a new addition to the existing structure. as with old houses its not quite square and level and attaching the new does present some interesting issues. not major, but just require some opinions.
I need to mate up a new construction floor to old construction. since the new will be level I need to level out the old to it. basically the old is higher in the centre and drops about 1/4" over 11 ft to the outside wall. I thought about using self leveling then a 1/2 ply on top for a nice new surface for a smooth transition from old to new.
I really dont feel like lowering the centre of the house since I think this will throw off the dynamics of the rest of the house.
your thoughts?
