Telopea Floor Replacement
SCE Corp replaced the floor finish at a Telopea property, removing the existing coverings, inspecting the underlying floor, preparing and levelling the surface, and installing new vinyl composition tiles.
The project brought together removal, substrate preparation and flooring installation, renewing the floor through the kitchen area.
Project overview
Subfloor Preparation and New Floor Finish
SCE removed and disposed of the old floor coverings, inspected the underlying structure and prepared the surface. Floor-levelling compound was supplied and spread before installation of the new vinyl composition tiles.
Subfloor preparation
SCE inspected, prepared and levelled the subfloor before installing the replacement finish.
Visual outcome
The completed view shows a consistent light-coloured floor finish through the kitchen area.
Preparing and levelling the exposed floor before installation connected the condition of the underlying surface with the completed finish.
