The basement floor of our Ditmas Park house is ancient concrete, with heaving & cracks and plants coming up etc. It’s not THAT bad but it isn’t pretty or level. There’s a section that would fit our treadmill & elliptical machines but we need to build a level sturdy platform. To complicate matters there is a water leak in that area so whatever we build will have to breathe so the water can evaporate. We plan on a massive renovation of the entire basement but not for a few years. Any suggestions? Who would do something like this? Is it a DIY project for a somewhat handy couple?
