Carpets, Lino & Flooring

Is my floor level enough for laminate to be laid?

Hi there I was wondering if anyone could help. I have bought laminate flooring to lay along with a 5mm polystyrene foam underlay. I have just taken up the old Lino in the area which was stuck down with a strong glue that was trowelled out - it was a job trying to get it up. As I have pulled it up it had also pulled up bits of concrete along with it leaving a tiny uneven surface. I'd say the level in difference between the bits of concrete that have come up as opposed to the bits that haven't are about 2-3mm in difference so not hardly anything. This has occurred in patches across the whole room. If I were to lay the underlay over this would it even put the tiny uneven parts so it's suitable to lay the laminate or would it need to be screeded? I could send a photo if any tradesman would be kind enough to include their email address? Regards john
