Floor Leveling

I created this page and video to show how our floor leveling services are unique.  Our floor leveling equipment shown is not typical of most installer's, in fact, most have not invested in any of this equipment.  Here's a short video that help you understand how floor leveling is done and why it's so important.  After you watch the floor leveling video, call me at 602-550-8818.  I'll be glad to answer your questions or set up an on-site visit to discuss how our floor leveling process can benefit you.

What is floor leveling, and what is a Super Flat Floor?  Simple - it's a sub floor that meets or exceeds a flooring manufacturer's minimum specifications for flatness - over the entire area of your sub floor.  This means that the level of the sub floor will be the same 15 feet, 20 feet, or even further away from any given point.  These sub floors have been flattened to the point that there is no appreciable difference in height - no high points or low points anywhere... the floor is totally flat.  Neither thinset nor adhesive is intended to "build up" low spots, and of course you can't take them away to compensate for a high spot.  So the only way to achieve a sub floor that is flattend to flooring manufacturers' specifications is by precision grinding and/or application of a leveling underlayment.  Jack King is one of the very few flooring contractors with the equipment and expertise to reliably achieve a Super Flat Floor, thus providing a base which guarantees the beauty and durability of your new flooring installation.

We have invested about $30,000.00 in specialized equipment to produce Super Flat Floors.  We use a combination of lasers, aluminum screeds, large and small grinders, with state of the art dust collection systems, precision levels, and other devices to really flatten a sub floor.  And we ensure that the entire floor is flat... just because one section is flat, that doesn't mean that it's in line with the next section.

So why is a Super Flat Floor so important?

• Really large ceramic and stone tile can be installed with the edges almost touching but without those annoying variances in the height of the individual tiles, and without the risk of cracks developing over uneven sections of the sub floor.
• Wood flooring can be glued down with no "hollow spots."

As a discerning customer, you will appreciate the beauty of a totally flat flooring installation.  And have you ever had a look at baseboards installed over a wavy floor?  It's not attractive!

As a homeowner who has invested in a beautiful new floor, proper surface preparation means that you have increased your home's value.

Flooring distributors are happy to guarantee their products, but they are also happy to find reasons to avoid paying a claim.  One of the easiest ways to do that is to find that the sub floor doesn't meet the minimum standard for flatness.  Then they can claim that the warranty is voided by improper flooring installation.  We can guarantee that this won't happen!

Concrete slabs here in the Phoenix Metropolitan area usually require surface preparation in order to guarantee a perfect installation.  We have collected data from hundreds of projects, and can advise on the best methods of flattening your subfloor and what the cost is likely to be.

The bottom line is:  We care enough to prepare the installation from its very foundation!
