Levelers
Simplify your project with quality installation products!
Compare self-leveling underlayments, smoothing compounds and deep-pour floor levelers used to flatten or correct subfloors before flooring installation. Check the compatible substrate, pour depth, working time, coverage, cure time and indoor or outdoor use for each product.
Prepare the surface according to the manufacturer instructions. Depending on the substrate and leveler, the project may also require a flooring primer, a floor patch for localized repairs, or self-leveling tools for mixing, depth control and finishing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a floor leveler used for?
A floor leveler helps create a flatter, more uniform surface before compatible flooring is installed. Product limits vary by substrate, layer thickness and location.
Do I need primer before applying a leveler?
Many systems require a compatible primer, but the requirement depends on the substrate and product. Follow the leveler and primer technical instructions for surface preparation, mixing and application.
How do I choose between floor patch and self-leveling underlayment?
Floor patch is commonly used for localized repairs, while self-leveling underlayment is often selected for broader areas. Confirm the required depth, coverage and flooring compatibility before ordering.
