Concrete floor advice sought please

[Apasc]

Renovating 1940s bungalow and in a quandary about kitchen floor. When built the property has suspended timber floors other than the kitchen which was concrete. An extension to kitchen was added early 1990s and the floor for that is suspended with chipboard. Having lifted the Lino I’ve found various cracks in the concrete and the chipboard is slightly higher. There must have been concrete repairs over the years and there are a number of raised sections. The leave from the kitchen to the livingroom is also different (concrete slightly higher).
Photos attached (hopefully ).
Any suggestions of how to best approach would be most welcome. Will get some builders out to have a look and see what they say, but looking for some advice first so I don’t approach it as the daft lassie Cheers.

Hi, I haven’t done anything yet as unfortunately I’ve not been able to source any advice or get anyone interested in coming out to have a look.

What are you hoping to achieve with your floors ?

Hi IHateDamp, eventually looking to have a finished vinyl floor covering such as Karndeen - too clumsy with crockery to have tiles, as well as wanting something a bit warmer. But think I would need to sort out the cracking and level issues first.

Some flooring installers use different screeds/hardboard to even out differences in height.

Perhaps you could get your karndene retailer to come and have a look and he may recommend what could be done with your floors.

If it were me I would use a nice vinyl on a roll because it allows a bit of give and won't crack. But that's just me.
