Hi, We've just bought a house and found that a concrete floor has a ramp in it!
There is a difference in height of approx 2 inches at each end of the ramp which is around 14 inches wide.
It is between 2 rooms that used to be completely seperate, they have since been knocked through into one (lounge and dining room). We want to put wooden flooring in, but ideally the ramp would have to go. The floor in the dining room is the higher one. If this was lowered then it would leave the utility room higher, which could probably be lived with.
The alternative is raising the lounge floor which is (due to carpets and tiling in the ajoining rooms) around ¾ inch lower, but the wooden flooring would raise this up too high!
So I'm stuck as to what to do!
Is it expensive to get a solid concrete floor lowered.
We've considered Acid Stained concrete too, but not sure about the colours, or been able to find anyone to do it!
