Services
Gypsum Cement-Based Underlayment
We install Maxxon Gyp-Crete and Commercial Pro underlayments with compressive strengths up to 7000 psi, providing durable flooring foundations that meet strict project specifications. Our cement-based solutions offer superior crack resistance and moisture control for commercial buildings. These underlayments serve as thermal mass for radiant heating systems while maintaining dimensional stability across large surface areas.
Subfloor Leveling
Using laser-guided technology, we achieve precise floor elevations through self-leveling concrete applications across 40,000 sq ft daily. Our process addresses uneven substrates on wood, concrete, and precast planks while maintaining fast drying times. We specialize in deep fill applications for severely unleveled floors without compromising structural integrity through weight-controlled formulations.
Sound Mat Installation
We implement Maxxon Acousti-Mat systems to enhance sound insulation in multi-unit buildings, achieving higher STC/IIC ratings for floor-ceiling assemblies. Our sound control solutions work with various flooring types while maintaining code compliance. These systems effectively reduce impact noise transmission between units in residential and commercial spaces.
Concrete Floor Prep
Our team addresses challenging concrete substrates through spall repair, lightweight concrete stabilization, and vinyl asbestos tile encapsulation. We prepare surfaces for new flooring installations while managing asbestos contamination risks. This includes sealing deteriorated concrete and applying 1/4" Level-Right toppings to restore structural integrity.
Radiant Floor Heating
We provide complete radiant heating system installations, from electric cable layout to underlayment pouring over heating elements. Our systems integrate with cement-based toppings to create efficient thermal mass for even heat distribution. This solution offers energy-efficient heating while maintaining floor flatness requirements for finished surfaces.
