I just put down LAVP in one of my rentals after using a 4" grinder with a concrete grinding wheel and dust shroud hooked up to my shop vac. I had about 15 sq ft of high spots in a 400 sq ft room. A 6' level and some chalk worked well to mark out the high areas. Would have had to grind the whole surface to use leveling compound due to paint overspray on the concrete. Leveling compound needs a clean surface to bond properly. HD also rents a concrete grinding machine but my areas were not that big and it took 2 people to lift it. --173.49.xx.xx

Shoot me an email with the name of the company that did you wrong so I can avoid them as well. --47.248.xxx.xxx

Zero, the subfloor is plywood. I had new joices put underneath. If you take a 2 x 4 and lay it on it, the 2 x 4 rocks like a rough rocking horse. It is pretty bad and I see why they say carpet. I think it may be too unlevel even for a leveling compound. --64.184.xx.xx

Sorry, trying to add a little levity. --47.248.xxx.xxx

I would try and smooth the floor out tho. Putting all the time and money into fixing it and then giving up at the end is never a fun thing. --47.248.xxx.xxx

Ha ha, my DH REFUSES to use floor leveler. He says it erases the "character" in old houses. --64.246.xxx.xx

We have one house like this... indoor outdoor carpet has lasted a long time. Another option may be the glue strip (was Allure) homedepot Life proof product. We've used newsppaer in those dips and it has lasted now going on 10 years without issue. --172.59.xxx.xxx

mapleleaf character? the only thing that matters is how much rent can i collect --38.248.xx.xxx

"something solid" could be: I've seen shingles used, or wood - like progressively larger pieces of 1/4" luann. Again, depends on the severity. --72.218.xx.xxx

I have used laminate across some pretty uneven floors but I at least make an effort to get them close. I have one property where everything tilts in a different direction but at least each area tilts in the same general direction. I would suggest vinyl as it is very flexible but I personally would glue it together with a floor that uneven. --162.204.xxx.xxx

Paint the floor that retains the character, lol. Sheet vinyl is a good suggestion. If using floor leveling mortar toy can prime the surface w their coordinating product. Henry is the brand I'm familiar with. If the floor sag a whole lot then it will wind up being much heavier if you are trying to erase an inch or more dip. --172.59.xxx.xx

Circling back you said you had some joist replaced. Does your existing joist system have enough strength to hold tons of concrete/self-leveler? --67.140.xx.xxx
