Concrete floors are one of the best options for flooring in homes and commercial buildings. They are characterized by a long service life and low maintenance compared to other types of flooring, while they easily withstand heavy foot loads.
Self-leveling concrete is a popular solution for industrial floors. Floor self-leveling concrete is modified with urethane polymers to create a highly viscous material. It spreads like a liquid and flows over the floor to create a flat, even surface with minimal need for stroking.
But the concrete floor is not without flaws. Sometimes they will look even feel uneven. This is one of the most common types of problems that concrete floors have to face. If you feel that your concrete floors are uneven and have problems, this post will help you find the right solution.
Concrete can be poured directly onto your existing floor including concrete, timber, VCT, ceramic tiles, plywood, or other hard surfaces. After pouring, the concrete is carefully spread and we can apply stains, dyes, or decorative overlays for customization. The results are smooth and flat with compressive strength similar to traditional concrete floors.
Here’s everything you need to know about the benefits of leveling your concrete floor:
Why do concrete floors become uneven?
Uneven concrete floors occur for a variety of reasons. One of the most common reasons is humidity. If your floor has moisture problems, some parts can swell and leave the other part sloppy. Another reason could be that self-concrete floors are prone to cracking. It may not happen that often, but when it does, it can lead to an uneven floor surface.
Dips, cracks, chips, and holes can also make your floor look uneven. This is where leveling the floor comes in!
Advantages of using self-leveling devices
There are many advantages and benefits of using self-leveling devices. Here are some of the practical benefits:
Durability
This special concrete combines cement with polymer urethane to create one of the most durable flooring materials available today.
Easy installation and Environmental damage
We can resurface your industrial floors without changing the existing floor by applying concrete slurry directly to the floor without the need for additional steps such as a primer or top coat.
Industrial environments require solutions. Concrete resists moisture, temperature shocks, and chemicals. It withstands harsh environments without prematurely weakening or degrading.
Easy maintenance and Versatility
The glass-like smoothness of self-leveling floors allows for easy cleaning without the need for additional sanding, topcoats, polishing, or finishing.
Concrete floors can be customized to match the aesthetics of your business. You can combine it with a variety of additives, pigments, topcoats, or other decorative media to create a look that is as visually appealing as it is functional.
Self-leveling machines are one of the best ways to create a smooth surface and repair any damage or imperfections. These self-leveling machines are easy to use and an effective way to solve various flooring problems.
