The Premium Choice for Floor Finishing
Flortek uses self-leveling underlayment to create a smooth, even foundation for interior flooring and concrete finishes, correcting imperfections and ensuring long-term durability. This essential step enhances adhesion, prevents flooring failures, and guarantees a flawless installation for commercial spaces.
Fix Uneven Floors with Self-Leveling Underlayment
Self-leveling underlayment is a cementitious or polymer-based compound designed to create a smooth, even surface before installing interior flooring or concrete finishes. This liquid-like material spreads across uneven substrates, automatically filling low spots, cracks, and surface imperfections, ensuring a stable foundation for materials like tile, vinyl, hardwood, epoxy, and polished concrete. By eliminating irregularities, self-leveling underlayment prevents flooring failures, enhances durability, and ensures a flawless finish in high-traffic commercial environments.
CONCRETE PREPARATION WITH GRINDING
Our team uses specialized grinding machines equipped with rotating diamond-tipped discs. These discs smooth and level the surface of the floors, remove imperfections, and allows the overlay to bond. We typically use grinding in small spaces where greater precision is needed.

03
surface profiling
We will profile the concrete floor to ensure the overlays adhere. Profiling through shot blasting or grinding creates a rough texture. The pores of the concrete open and allow for epoxy and urethane overlays to bond.

Remove defects
05
moisture testing
As part of our rigorous QA/QC checklist, we test the moisture levels of the concrete. Excessive moisture can result in the new flooring systems to bubble or delaminate.
