Question Laminate Wood Flooring Over An Old Garage Floor

Hey Guys


I am doing a rehab to an older home that originally had an attached one car garage. Previously they enclosed the garage and removed the back wall and opened it to the inside of the house. Well now i am looking to install laminated wood floor over the area which includes going over the existing garage floor. At certain spots there are areas at least 2 inches lower than the rest of the flooring. The area of the garage floor is 28 feet long and about 10 feet wide , the pitch obviosly gets greater from back to front of house. Iam looking for ideas to level the floor at the most reasonible cost in order to install the flooring over it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks Again
mike

Self leveling would be costly but the easiest.
but will it affect any other areas coming up higher?
