Hi Dan, Try to search for raised suspended flooring I found this link: http://www.bellcomb.com/ You could call them and they may have a few suggestions.

Victor, Yes, I assume I could put a self-leveling concrete mix to level the floor, but two issues with that. I would then not have a sloped floor which is important on the off chance the basement floods, which did happen once due to the main drain line getting blocked during a rain storm. Yes, our gutters are tied into the drain system. Secondly, and more importantly, It would take a crapload of concrete to do this. The basement floor is about 14 inches lower at the center than on the edges. With the trouble of getting a truck anywhere near the house, it would be a bit of an issue getting all the concrete up all the stairs and down to the basement. -- Blue skies.
