Now the chimney breast in the back is out, I've pulled up the vinyl-on-concrete-on-ply covering the original floorboards in the front. The floor in the front room looks in pretty good shape, but, is about 15mm lower than the back room, with a 140mm band of concrete separating them. This was previously hidden by a ply+concrete+vinyl monstrosity through both parts of the room.
I'm trying to figure out how best to deal with the join. I don't want to pull the lower floor up if I can help it, the higher one is already coming out. Figure my best option would be to take out enough of the concrete to set a plank in there at a slight angle to join the two? I assume planing the joists in the back room, or whittling those boards towards the join is a ridiculous idea...
