Side profile of my floor in kitchen. The black is existing concrete. The brown is existing floorboards.
My plan is to chisel down the concrete on the red dots to get a vertical edge (because in my mind vertical edge is easier to scribe to than beveled edge?). Then lay ply (yellow) down to create a more gradual slope than the current 2 inch drop. Then once it's fairly level to cover it in a few layers of underlay (blue) and then vinyl tiles (not shown).
Is that a trash plan. What else could I do and how could I go about doing it or how could I go about cleanly chiselling down a straight-ish line into concrete?
For the idiots among us, what do you mean exactly? Not worried about elegant so long as once the vinyl tile is on top it doesn't look like shit. But realistically it will be an improvement on the current situation.
