# Subfloor repair done first

> A new floor is only as good as what is under it. SC Flooring Masters tests and repairs concrete slabs and plywood subfloors, then installs the floor on a sound, flat base.

## Why subfloor repair

- **Flat and sound base.** Grinding, filling and levelling to the flatness your new floor needs.
- **Tested first.** Flatness and moisture are checked before anything is priced.
- **Slab or plywood.** Concrete slabs repaired; soft or damaged plywood replaced.

## How it works

1. **Tell us about the job.** Send your rooms and the floor you like, or call us.
2. **We measure and check.** Every room measured, the slab or subfloor checked.
3. **You get it in writing.** Material, prep, labor, trims and delivery on one estimate.
4. **We confirm and install.** Stock confirmed first, then your installation date is booked.

## Questions

### What is a subfloor?

The base your floor sits on. In most Florida homes it is the concrete slab; upstairs and in raised floors it is usually plywood.

### How do I know my subfloor needs repair?

Soft or springy spots, planks that separate or click, cracked or hollow tiles, and visible dips or ridges are the usual signs.

### Can you level a concrete slab?

Yes. High spots are ground down and low spots filled with a levelling compound, so the floor meets the manufacturer's flatness requirement.

### Do you replace damaged plywood subfloor?

Yes. Soft, delaminated or water-damaged plywood is cut out and replaced before the new floor goes down.

### How do I get a price?

Send photos with an estimate request or call us. We check the subfloor and send a written estimate.
