Optimal Timing for Subfloor Leveling
Subfloor levelings are essential for creating a stable and even surface prior to installing flooring materials. Proper timing ensures the effectiveness and longevity of the leveling process, preventing future issues such as uneven flooring, cracks, or structural problems.
The best time for subfloor leveling is during dry seasons when humidity and moisture levels are low, reducing the risk of expansion or contraction after installation.
Avoid leveling during periods of high humidity or heavy rainfall, as moisture can affect the curing process and cause unevenness or warping.
Scheduling subfloor leveling before the installation of flooring materials ensures a flat surface, minimizing the need for future corrections and repairs.
Proper preparation is crucial before leveling to ensure adhesion and stability.
