Floor Levelling

The application of a self-levelling liquid compound to create a smooth, flat subfloor surface prior to laying floor coverings. Unevenness can result from an imperfectly poured concrete slab, settlement, or the removal of an old floor covering. The compound flows to fill low spots and is typically applied at 3–10 mm thickness; it cures in 1–24 hours depending on product. A level subfloor is essential to prevent tile cracking and ensure good adhesion.
