Pricing guide
Costs for subfloor levelling are driven mainly by the type and condition of the substrate and how much remediation is required. Simple smoothing of a sound concrete or timber subfloor is typically less involved than deep fills, re-screeding or extensive timber stabilisation. Licensed hazardous-material remediation, major carpentry or large concrete removal may be excluded from a standard quote and can increase the overall scope.
Substrate type
Concrete substrates usually use standard levelling compounds while timber floors often need mechanical fixing, shimming and flexible compounds, which increases labour and materials.
Repair depth and extent
Deep fills or full re-screeding require heavier materials and more labour than standard surface levelling compounds.
Structural stabilisation and carpentry
Where joists, battens or plywood need replacement or stabilising, extra carpentry work raises the job's complexity and duration.
Hazardous materials and damp issues
Asbestos, major moisture problems or specialist damp-proofing are generally excluded from standard levelling and typically require licensed remediation or specialist trades.
Waste removal and site access
Large volumes of concrete removal, difficult access or restricted work areas can add time and may be quoted separately.
