I just bough a chalet that has a joist floor floating above a very uneven concrete slab in the basement. I plan on removing the floor to go back to the concrete slab and pour an even concrete floor on the top of it to have it polished.
What would be the steps to do that? Should I use regular concrete first and then SLC? Should I add insulation panels in between the old slab and the new concrete floor? Is there anything I am missing?
The existing slab has up to 5'' in heigh difference. I'll try to get pictures once the wood floor is removed.
Thank you!
(I'm completely new to concrete floor, so I hope what I say make sense. If not I would be happy to add any precision needed)
