Self-Leveling Underlayment

Flat substrate.
Every time.

When the substrate isn't flat, no floor coating will last. We apply self-leveling underlayment to bring uneven, cracked, or out-of-plane concrete to a flat, bondable surface before any coating goes down.

Flatness
Pour Animation

From uneven
to perfectly flat.

The industry standard for floor flatness allows no more than 3/16 inch variation in 10 feet. Anything worse than that and a floor coating will crack, chip, and delaminate — no matter how good the topcoat is.

Self-leveling underlayment is a cementitious compound that flows under gravity and finds its own level. It fills low spots, bridges minor cracks, and creates the flat, smooth canvas that makes a floor coating last.

Applications

When it's
required.

📐
Uneven Concrete Slabs

Fills low spots and bridges cracks to bring the slab to flat. Required before any floor coating on surfaces with more than 3/16" variation in 10 feet.

🏗️
New Construction

New concrete often has surface defects, bug holes, and minor unevenness. Self-leveling over the slab creates the perfect canvas for any decorative or functional floor system.

🔧
After Failed Coating Removal

Removing a failed coating can leave the substrate damaged. Self-leveling underlayment restores a clean, flat surface before the new system goes down.

🏢
Commercial & Industrial

Large-area applications in warehouses and production facilities. We phase installation to keep operations running during the project.

🪵
Over Plywood Subfloor

Flexible-modified compounds for wood substrates. Levels over OSB, plywood, and existing floors that need a flat base before coating.

⚡
Fast-Track Options

Fast-set compounds achieve walk-on strength in 2–4 hours and coating-ready in 16–24 hours. Keeps your project on schedule when downtime costs money.

No Surprises

Flat floor.
Warranted.

If the substrate isn't flat, we'll fix it before we coat it. We never apply a topcoat to a substrate we wouldn't warranty — and we don't.
