Our Subfloor Preparation Services
Latex Floor Levelling
We apply premium self-levelling latex smoothing compounds to create a perfectly flat and even surface. This is essential for herringbone, chevron and wide-plank flooring, ensuring flawless adhesion and an exceptional final finish. Suitable for concrete, screed and uneven substrates.
Plywood Subfloor Installation
Moisture-resistant plywood provides a strong, stable and uniform base for wood flooring. We professionally install structural plywood to correct uneven surfaces, reduce movement and reinforce weak subfloors — essential for secure engineered and parquet installations.
Moisture Testing & Hygrometer Checks
Before any installation begins, we carry out accurate moisture testing to eliminate the risk of cupping, swelling, adhesive failure and mould growth. Certified moisture readings ensure your subfloor is safe and within installation tolerances.
DPM (Damp Proof Membrane)
We apply high-performance liquid DPM systems to seal moisture within concrete and screed subfloors. This creates a protective barrier against rising damp and delivers a safe, long-term foundation for wood flooring installations.
