Hello!

Now it's time to cover the channel between the kitchen and the "bygget". As you can see in the pictures, it's not just a matter of slapping something on because it's so uneven. Additionally, the "bygget's" floor is 1 cm higher. The first thought was to put a profiled aluminum strip over everything, but it's probably too wide. The second thought was to pour concrete and cast a plank, and then screw on an oak threshold or something similar. None of my ideas seem particularly good. So feel free to share yours!

Uneven gap between two tile surfaces with visible rough edges and layered materials, illustrating a construction challenge in a renovation project. Uneven gap between kitchen floor tiles and wooden boards showing level difference. Uneven gap between kitchen and adjacent construction with exposed wooden beams and rough edges awaiting coverage. Gap between uneven wooden flooring with a ruler showing measurements, highlighting a height difference issue. Cat paws and a purple shoe visible in the background. Uneven floor transition between kitchen and construction area with visible wood and tile surfaces.

Could you saw off the slanted boards and insert a stud for more support and then maybe attach an oak threshold?
 
How wide is the gap?

The slanted boards are the old exterior wall. To get them below the floor level, I cut them diagonally with a chainsaw. That's why they look like they do.

The gap is a dm.
 
That shouldn't be a problem to get hold of an aluminum strip, but it does need support from underneath.

Rule at the bottom, on the slanted epoxy filler, then cover with a board or plank then threshold.
 
I had filled all the gaps and holes with foam sealant and then used self-leveling compound. This is partly because I like both foam sealant and self-leveling compound and I have them at home.:)

A bit like pushing down foam bananas...

Is there very hard foam sealant?

I use Biltema's masonry adhesive as foam sealant, it's beautifully pink and low-expanding, so it becomes a bit harder, fiber-reinforced self-leveling compound distributes the force. If you manage for the small hole, Eps-cement before leveling would also work well.

I find it convenient with pure epoxy and then I mix in fiberglass flock to get exactly the filler I want.

But it's possible to use polyester or epoxy and then talc to make filler.
