    Yes use a self levelling compound.
    Look on Mapei`s website for a suitable product.

    Mapei do a few levellers....i like their fibre plan..but have also used weber niv a lot lately..nice stuff and goes upto 25mm in one bite..

    Using a straight edge fill in the low spots first before you blast the whole floor over...

    what colour marble is it and type..?
