Sloping floor

Ratter · 13 Jul 2007

I have a room which is about 5m x 3.5m and it has a slope of about 30mm on the short side. This room was once a double garage (before our time) and I assume the slope was to let out any water which got under the door.

The problem is that any tall furniture looks drunk because it isn't vertical!

Is there any sensible way of levelling the floor or should I just live with it?

Seems too much slope for a screed and relaying the floor which is concrete seems a bit OTT.

is the current garage floor somewhat lower than existing, allowing you room for timber battens or concrete?

Sadly not, the higher end of the room is flush with the hallway and it slopes away to the lower end which is the front of the house.

The previous owners converted the garage to a room and then built another garage attached to the other end of the house.
