[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the feedback, all. The slope of the floor is noticeable, but nothing we couldn't live with. It simply would take away from the "finished" look of the room. There was never any question about keeping the drain; we're gonna keep it. The slope is the thing. To level, or not to level, that is the question. Previous owners finished the basement years ago. But we didn't like the vinyl tile they used, and we weren't crazy about the slope. The tile is easily replaced with ceramic. We just have to figure out what to do with the slope. I understand the slope helps drain the area in an emergency. But when the previous owners finished the room, they erected several walls. Any water draining into the drain is going to have to pass through those walls anyway. So slope or no slope we're looking athte potential for $$$ in damage is we get water. Thanks again.[/quote]
