   Craftsmen: How out is the subfloor, what is it made of, how thick of a plywood are you adding, and what does the plywood manufacturer require for spacing?

   OK, how big is the area? Is it pitched overall or low in some places/high in others...?
   Can you start with 3/4" in one area and decrease to 3/8" or 1/4" in another with "Levelastic" making up the gaps?

   there is a product called Ardex. this is a self leveling cement based underlay. I have used it extensively and have had realy great results with it. It is pricey but by the time you pay for the labor and ply it will even out....

   I'am planning to install a parquet floor over a wooden sub floor, the floor requires leveling, what product should I use to level the floor. When I put new sub floor over top, should I leave a space between the sheets of plywood, if so how much, should I glue and screw the sub floor, how far apart should the screws be spaced? Thanks for the help.
