Are you preparing to install new Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP), laminate, or tile in your Abbotsford home, only to discover your concrete slab or plywood subfloor looks like a roller coaster?

It’s the hidden nightmare of home renovations. You spend thousands on beautiful new finish materials, rip up the old carpet, and find dips, humps, and cracks that will guarantee your new floor fails, squeaks, or separates within months.

At Sahig Floors and More, we don’t just install floors; we engineer the foundation. We provide expert floor leveling services across Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley, ensuring your subfloor meets strict industry flatness standards before the first plank is laid. Don't risk a costly installation failure—let us get it flat first.

Most modern flooring materials—especially click-lock LVP and large-format tile—have incredibly strict tolerances for subfloor flatness. Manufacturers typically require the floor to be flat within 3/16 inch over a 10-foot radius (or 1/8 inch over 6 feet).

If your subfloor isn’t level, you face serious long-term issues:

• Clicking & Squeaking: Uneven spots cause planks to flex when you walk on them, leading to annoying noise and weak joints.

• Joint Separation: Constant flexing creates stress on the locking mechanisms, eventually causing gaps to appear between planks.

• Tile Cracking: Hollow spots beneath large tiles focus pressure, making them highly susceptible to cracking under foot traffic.

• Voided Warranties: If you install over an unlevel floor, most flooring manufacturers will void your warranty immediately upon failure.

Proper concrete leveling or plywood subfloor preparation eliminates these risks, giving you a stable, silent foundation that maximizes the lifespan of your investment.

We don't just pour some compound and hope for the best. Sahig Floors and More uses a rigorous, dust-controlled mechanical process to prepare your subfloor correctly.

1. Mechanical Dustless Grinding

We utilize heavy-duty, industrial concrete grinding equipment connected to high-efficiency dust extraction vacuums. We mechanically remove high spots, humps, old adhesive, and contaminants that interfere with bonding. This step creates the ideal profile for the leveling compound to adhere to.

2. Priming & Bonding Agents

A level floor needs a perfect bond. We apply specialized high-solids primers to the prepared concrete or wood subfloor. This seals the surface and ensures the self-leveling underlayment fuses permanently to the substrate.

3. High-Performance Self-Leveling Underlayment (SLU)

Depending on the severity of the unevenness, we utilize advanced cementitious self-leveling compounds. This material is mixed and poured professionally, flowing into low spots to create a perfectly flat, smooth surface that hardens quickly.

4. Deep Fill & Patching

For extreme variations or deep trenches, we use specialized deep-fill compounds before the final leveling pass, saving you money while ensuring structural integrity.
