Setcrete Level-Smart floor levelling compound has been used to deliver a super-smooth floor prior to the installation of vinyl floorcoverings as part of a fast-track kitchen refurbishment at a residential property in Rugby.
The first step was to use Setcrete Rapid Repair mortar to fill a deep channel left behind where a gas main had been excavated to make room for a new appliance, as well as other minor surface defects to help prevent blemishes showing through to the finished appearance.
Setcrete Rapid Set Repair Mortar was selected as it’s an easy-to-use, single component mortar for conducting non-structural repairs to a wide range of damaged or worn concrete surfaces. It is simply mixed with water and applied with a trowel to horizontal or vertical surfaces. Resistant to moisture and frost, it is suitable for use in both internal and external settings and is walk-on hard in just 60 minutes after application, meaning the installation could proceed the same day.
