Subfloor preparation is the essential first step before any type of flooring installation—whether it’s carpet, vinyl, laminate, hybrid, timber, or bamboo. A subfloor is the foundation layer beneath your flooring surface, and if it’s not properly prepared, it can lead to uneven surfaces, cracks, noise, or even premature floor damage.
Proper subfloor preparation ensures:
âś… A smooth and even finish
âś… Increased lifespan of your flooring
âś… Strong adhesion and secure fitting
âś… Prevention of future issues like creaking, lifting, or bubbling
Skipping this step can cause visible imperfections and costly repairs later.
We follow a detailed step-by-step process to ensure your subfloor is ready for any type of flooring installation:
We inspect the existing floor to check for:
Moisture damage
Uneven levels
Cracks or holes
Old adhesives or debris
All dust, loose materials, and adhesive residues are removed. This helps the new floor bond properly and sit evenly.
We use self-leveling compounds or patching materials to fill any dips, cracks, or holes in the surface. If the subfloor is timber, we may replace damaged boards or apply sanding.
For areas prone to moisture (like basements or bathrooms), we install moisture barriers or waterproof underlays to protect your floor.
Before laying any flooring, we double-check the surface is smooth, dry, and ready to go.
We’re experienced with all types of subfloor materials:
Concrete Subfloors – Grinding, sealing, and leveling as needed
Timber/Particleboard Subfloors – Sanding, nailing, or board replacement
Existing Tile Floors – Smoothing out or removing uneven sections
Heated Floors – We use materials that are compatible with underfloor heating systems
