Professional Floor Leveling
5-year warranty • Serving Greater Vancouver
What is Floor Leveling?
Floor leveling is the critical process of correcting uneven, sloped, or damaged subfloors to create a perfectly flat surface for your finished flooring. Whether you're installing hardwood, tile, laminate, or any other flooring material, a level subfloor is essential for proper installation, longevity, and performance.
Uneven floors aren't just an aesthetic issue—they cause serious problems. Tiles crack, hardwood buckles and squeaks, vinyl develops wrinkles, and doors refuse to close properly. Foundation settlement, water damage, age-related deterioration, and poor original construction all contribute to floor irregularities that worsen over time.
At PROMARK FLOORING, we've spent over 20 years perfecting the art and science of floor leveling. Using state-of-the-art self-leveling compounds, precision concrete grinding, and expert subfloor repair techniques, we correct everything from minor dips to severe slopes. Our work creates the solid, level foundation your new flooring needs to look beautiful and last for decades.

Common Questions About Floor Leveling
How do I know if my floor needs leveling?
Signs include visible slopes or dips, balls rolling across the floor, gaps under furniture, cracked tiles, squeaky hardwood, doors that won't close properly, and visible cracks in the subfloor.
How long does the floor leveling process take?
Most residential projects take 1-3 days. The actual pour takes just a few hours, but proper preparation and curing time are essential. The compound typically cures within 24-48 hours.
Can you level floors in occupied homes or businesses?
Yes. While the work area must be cleared during the pour and initial curing, we can work in phases to minimize disruption. For businesses, we often schedule work during off-hours.
What types of subfloors can be leveled?
We level concrete slabs, wood subfloors, existing tile floors, and various other substrates. Each material requires different preparation and leveling techniques.
Will floor leveling raise the floor height significantly?
The height increase depends on how much leveling is needed. For minor corrections, we may add only 1/8" to 1/4". More significant unevenness may require 1/2" to 1" or more.
Do you handle moisture issues before leveling?
Absolutely. Moisture testing is critical. If we detect moisture issues, we'll identify the source and recommend solutions before leveling. This is covered by our warranty.
