A well-finished, long-lasting floor looks beautiful and feels smooth and even not only because of the floor coat on top, but also the sub-floor preparation and layers underneath. A successfully designed and installed floor takes into account the existing substrate material and conditions, whether it is rough and unfinished, has some dips and waves or slopes unevenly.
Trust Sika floor experts to help you choose a sub-floor preparation system – from priming agents to leveling compounds and screeds – all perfectly compatible with Sika’s floor systems and other flooring materials on top.
