What Is Self Levelling Flooring?
Self levelling flooring is the process of using a floor levelling compound (latex screed) to smooth and level an uneven floor. It is used before installing flooring such as:
✅ vinyl sheet flooring
✅ safety vinyl (anti-slip)
✅ luxury vinyl tiles (LVT)
✅ Amtico / Karndean / Moduleo / Tarkett
✅ herringbone LVT
✅ commercial flooring
Self levelling compound fills:
- cracks
- dips
- small holes
- uneven surfaces
and creates a perfect smooth base for flooring installation.
Why Floor Levelling Is So Important
If the floor is not level, your new flooring may fail.
Without proper levelling you can get:
❌ bumps and dips visible through vinyl
❌ LVT tiles lifting or separating
❌ glue failure
❌ movement and noise
❌ uneven finish
❌ short lifespan flooring
With correct self levelling:
✅ perfect smooth finish
✅ strong adhesive bonding
✅ longer lasting floors
✅ better appearance
✅ better hygiene for commercial areas

Self Levelling Flooring for Vinyl & LVT
Self levelling is essential for:
✅ Sheet Vinyl Flooring Preparation
Vinyl shows every defect underneath — so levelling is required for:
- smooth finish
- seamless look
- no bumps
✅ LVT Luxury Vinyl Tiles Preparation
LVT needs a perfectly level subfloor. Any bump can show through the tiles and cause issues. Levelling prevents:
- tile movement
- gaps
- uneven patterns
✅ Herringbone Flooring Preparation
Herringbone LVT needs perfect levelling to keep all lines straight and avoid imperfections.
