At CRW Contracting Ltd, we specialise in identifying and resolving problematic floor areas before they become costly failures. Uneven, damaged, or contaminated subfloors can cause serious issues if left untreated from premature wear to complete floor failure. Our experience allows us to diagnose the problem and apply the correct solution first time.
What Are Problematic Floor Areas?
Problematic floor areas are sections of a subfloor that are unsuitable for direct floor covering installation without specialist preparation. These issues are often hidden beneath old finishes or only become apparent once work has begun.
Common problems include poor levels, excessive moisture, surface contamination, cracking, movement, or previous failed installations. If not addressed properly, these issues will transfer through to the final floor finish.
Our Process
Every project begins with a detailed site assessment. We inspect the condition of the subfloor, test moisture levels, and identify any structural or surface-related concerns. This allows us to recommend the most appropriate preparation system for the area.
Depending on the issue, solutions may include surface grinding, priming, moisture suppression systems, crack repairs, latex levelling, or full screed replacement. Our goal is always to stabilise the floor and create a sound, level base suitable for the intended final finish.
All remedial works are carried out using professional equipment and proven materials to ensure long-term performance.
Precision Where It Matters
Problematic areas demand accuracy. We use laser-guided levelling systems and industry-approved methods to ensure transitions, thresholds, and repaired sections blend seamlessly into the surrounding floor. This attention to detail is essential, particularly where vinyl, LVT, resin, or sheet flooring is being installed.
