Types of Self-Leveling Floor Systems We Offer

We provide a variety of self-leveling floor systems to meet different needs. Each type has unique features and benefits.

Cement-Based Self-Levelers

Cement-based self-levelers are known for their strength and durability. These materials are perfect for high-traffic areas and can handle heavy loads. They create a solid and smooth surface that bonds well to existing floors.


Installation is straightforward, making them ideal for both residential and commercial projects. After mixing with water, the compound is poured onto the floor. It spreads out evenly, filling in low spots.


These self-levelers typically dry quickly, allowing for fast project completion. They can be used under almost any flooring type, making them versatile. Some key benefits include:


  • High compressive strength
  • Quick drying time
  • Versatile applications

Gypsum-Based Self-Levelers

Gypsum-based self-levelers are lightweight and known for their ease of use. They are especially useful in residential applications and areas with lower traffic. These self-levelers create a smooth surface ideal for finishing.


We often recommend these for projects involving vinyl, tile, or carpet flooring. Installation involves mixing gypsum with water and pouring it onto the floor. It spreads evenly, filling imperfections quickly.


One key advantage is their excellent sound-dampening properties. This makes them perfect for multi-family homes or apartments. Notable features include:


  • Lightweight material
  • Sound insulation
  • Smooth finish

Polymer-Modified Self-Levelers

Polymer-modified self-levelers combine the features of cement and polymer for increased flexibility. This type is great for areas exposed to moisture, making them ideal for bathrooms and kitchens. Their added flexibility helps prevent cracking.


Installation is similar to that of cement-based self-levelers. The polymer enhances adhesion and durability, making them last longer. They also cure more quickly, allowing flooring to be installed sooner.


These self-levelers are perfect for both residential and commercial spaces. Key benefits are:


  • High flexibility
  • Moisture resistance
  • Quick cure time
