Floor Preparation

A service we provide is a full, top to bottom, floor preparation service. This includes the laying and taping of any necessary radon barriers to form a seal under the insulation. This is performed to NHBC/LABC standards. We can either provide the materials using our sister company NMA insulation or the materials can be provided by the client we are working for.

We also provide a full installation of the required insulation in the floor. Again, we can either provide the materials or have them supplied by the client. This can range from PIR, Jablite or carbon infused insulation such as Platinum Ground Floor. We can also install acoustic matting, typically used in flats or coachhouses. Iso Rubber, Yelofon HD10+ and Monarfloor are some common examples of this.

Lastly we can also install the VCL, also known as Top Coat, and the foam perimeter edging strip to the top of the insulation. This can also be supplied by either ourselves or the client but typically the foam edging strip comes with the underfloor heating kit if this is being installed. This is a necessary step as the VCL forms a barrier between the screed and the insulation, preventing any reaction between the two, and also ensuring the screed doesn’t leak below the insulation.

We can either do all of the above or any combination to ensure you are confident that everything is carried out correctly and to a high standard.
