About This Service
The Foundation of Every Great Floor
Most flooring failures have nothing to do with the product itself. They start below the surface: an uneven subfloor, hidden moisture, or inadequate preparation that gets overlooked to save time.
At Timbex, floor preparation is never optional. We use laser levels, professional moisture meters, and diamond grinding equipment to ensure your subfloor meets the standards required for a lasting installation.
We fix what's underneath before we install what goes on top.
Every floor we prepare gets a full assessment: level mapping, moisture testing, crack and hole repair, surface grinding, and levelling compounds where required. We then clean the surface completely before any flooring goes down.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Proper floor preparation is the foundation of a long-lasting installation. An uneven or unstable subfloor causes movement, noise, premature wear, and visible imperfections. Investing in preparation saves costly repairs later.
During our free on-site measure, we assess your subfloor for level, moisture, cracks, and structural integrity. We use professional tools including laser levels and moisture meters to identify any issues that need addressing.
Yes. While grinding does create dust, we use dust extraction equipment and take care to minimize disruption. We discuss timing and dust management during your consultation to ensure the process works for your household.
It depends on the size and condition of your floor. Most residential preparation work takes 1-2 days. Severe leveling or moisture remediation may take longer. We provide clear timeframes during your quote.
Not always. Some subfloors are in excellent condition and require minimal preparation. However, most floors benefit from at least basic cleaning and inspection. We never skip this step, because it ensures your new floor performs properly.
