Minimize Surface Prep and Achieve Even Subfloors
Traditional cements expand and contract as they cure, leading to potential floor failures when using self-leveling products that can’t accommodate these shifts. To prevent these issues and ensure proper adhesive bonding, surfaces often need to meet a CSP of 2 to 3 — a process that’s both time-consuming and costly.
Maxxon® Commercial Level EZ™ offers the stability and flexibility required for self-leveling applications, reducing the extensive subfloor prep typically needed. With its superior flow properties, Level EZ™ simplifies the process of creating smooth, even surfaces, providing contractors with a more efficient, cost-effective solution that minimizes the risk of flooring damage.
Why Floor Leveling Is Important for Your Home
A level floor is essential for the overall integrity and function of your home. Over time, floors can become uneven due to settling foundations, water damage, or poor installation. This can result in:
- Damage to Flooring: Laying new flooring on an uneven surface can lead to buckling, cracking, and warping over time, which reduces the lifespan of your flooring.
- Impact on Aesthetics: Uneven floors can cause gaps in baseboards, doors that don’t close properly, and unsightly waves or dips in flooring.
- Tripping Hazards: Uneven surfaces can be a safety concern, particularly for families with young children or elderly residents.
Our residential floor leveling services solve these issues, creating a smooth and even foundation for any flooring type—from hardwood and tile to carpet and laminate.

PROCESS
Our Floor Leveling Process
At Floor Technologies, we take pride in our precise and efficient floor leveling process. Here’s how we ensure a smooth and level surface for your residential floors:
- Inspection & Assessment: We begin with a thorough inspection of your existing floor to assess its condition. Using advanced equipment, we identify high and low points, as well as any underlying structural issues.
- Preparation: Next, we prepare the area by cleaning the floor and addressing any cracks or gaps that could affect the leveling process.
- Floor Leveling Application: Depending on the needs of your home, we apply a self-leveling compound to correct the uneven areas. This material is designed to flow into low spots and create a perfectly level surface.
- Smoothing & Finishing: Once the self-leveling compound is in place, we ensure a smooth finish that will serve as the ideal base for any flooring type you choose.
- Drying & Final Inspection: After the compound has dried, we conduct a final inspection to ensure that the floor is completely level and ready for installation.
