Self-Leveling
Self-leveling process
The self-leveling process begins with mechanically profiling and decontaminating the concrete floor to ensure optimal adhesion. Next, we apply a manufacturer-specified primer to prepare the surface for the leveling material. Once the primer is set, we install the self-leveling compound, which creates a flat and smooth floor tailored to your specific needs. This process not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also improves the overall functionality of your space.
Why do you need to self-level a floor?
Self-leveling a floor is essential for several reasons. First, it creates a smooth and even surface, which is crucial for the installation of flooring materials like tiles, vinyl, or hardwood. An uneven floor can lead to issues such as gaps, cracks, or buckling in the finished flooring. Additionally, self-leveling helps to correct any imperfections in the concrete substrate, ensuring better adhesion and longevity of the flooring. It can also improve the overall aesthetic of the space, making it more visually appealing. Finally, a properly leveled floor enhances functionality, providing a stable foundation for furniture and reducing wear and tear on flooring materials over time.
Self-leveling concrete floors
Self-leveling concrete floors are an innovative and practical solution for creating smooth, even surfaces over existing concrete floors. This type of concrete is a polymer-modified product that has a thinner consistency than traditional concrete, allowing it to spread and level itself with minimal assistance. It’s poured over uneven or damaged floors and, as it flows, it automatically fills in low spots and imperfections, creating a flawless and seamless finish. Ideal for both residential and commercial spaces, self-leveling concrete is typically used in basements, garages, warehouses, and even living spaces.
