SLOPING

Underlayments can be used to slope or pitch floors. For this project, the drains were the highest point of the garage floor. Upon pouring the underlayment, the floors sloped properly to the drains. Once the underlayment cured, an epoxy flooring was applied to protect it from water and road salts.  

Gypsum Cement Leveling

Using Gypsum Cement we were able to perfectly level this floor, even over the uneven surfaces like this old tile. We use this over any uneven surface whether its asbestos tile, hardwood, LVP, stone, concrete, and more!

"I have just done a year-to-date energy cost comparison of this year to the last two years preceding. It looks like we are on track to save about 50% on our heating bill. We didn't expect those results and are very impressed. At that rate, we can project to recapture the total cost of your service in less than four years."
