Thank you. Do you recommend grinding that area? If there are any other options, please let me know. Also which way is correct to check flatness (scenario1 vs Scenario2 in my picture for previous message)?

It seems i have low valley on one side (left) of around 1.5 foot high hump area and then bigger valley towards low side (right side). So, when I put 6 foot straight edge, I have to press on one side towards high end (left) then I get 1/4 inch gap towards low end (right side). If I did not press...
