What this work involves
Assess moisture, cracks and movement. Discuss colour variation, movement joints, protection and time before use.
- Material and surface
- Substrate and joint layout
- Loading and maintenance
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Defer vulnerable final finishes until investigation and disruptive repairs are complete.
What the drawing needs to explain
Create a phase drawing with three colours: repair now, improve later and investigate first. Mark where phases meet, such as roof edges, service routes and finished floors.
How to review the result
Check both completed work and preparations for the next phase. Record which connections are deliberately temporary and when they will be reassessed.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on area, system build-up, substrate repairs and finish. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for poured & seamless floor finishes. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging poured & seamless floor finishes?
A seamless appearance does not mean all structural joints can be removed. The necessary joint layout belongs in the flooring design.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
