Flooring That Wont Be Removed

So are the stairs coming up from a basement? I am a little confused about why there is grass when you delete the floor?

What I normally do when I have this problem is put walls around the area I want to delete then use the hammer to delete the floor and ceiling of the little room I created then I destroy the walls.

Yep, was going to make the same suggestion as SimsLady regarding building the wall around it.

Yeah I have been noticing that has been bugging out a bit more. Used to be able to just use the sledgehammer. I was trying to make a fireman pole for a build, so I had to do the wall in trick too.

@hrdazzgemini It's a pain. I completely understand what you are talking about. You probably have to build a room where you want to delete the ceiling. So the level under the floor. Then click on the yellow ring around that when you have the room selected, page-up, and "remove ceiling" If that doesn't make a hole, then build the exact same room on top and "smash" the floor.

thanks all, the creating a room around it and doing it that way seems to have worked. a pain but it worked ty.
