    Level sloping wooden floor in period property

    Hi there We have a sloping floor in a room on the first floor of our 1900's house in London, size is roughly 3.5 x 3.5m (13m2). It slopes about 3 inches from one side down to the other side. The current joists (underneath the laminate we took off) are in good condition. Can anyone suggest how much it would very approximately cost to level the room and put sheets of plywood over the joists? (we will add engineered wood flooring later on top). And how long it would take with how many people? thanks
