I live in an older property where some of the original timber floorboards are sloping up to 40mm from level.

I'm planning to get rigid LVT click flooring fitted and am looking for advice on how to level the floor. I understand that taking up the boards and either packing the joists or bolting on new joists to bring up the level would probably be the best solution, but I can't afford the cost of this.

I was thinking that an option could be to put down plywood and then use a leveling compound such as Mapei Ultraplan Renovations Screed 3240 to level the floor out.

I would appreciate any advice on if this would work, and how thick the plywood would need to be.

Thanks.
