Self-leveling concrete is a cement mix mainly utilized as a flooring underlayment. DIY self-leveling concrete is used to renovate floors or apply new floors, however it can also be used on its own and dyed or stained for a better aesthetic. As the mixture is poured and spread, it will self-level and create an even foundation for flooring to be applied.
Self-leveling concrete can be used under hardwood, laminate, tile, or ceramic flooring. Further advantages include a quick dry-time, easy-to-pour consistency, and resistance to moisture damage and other buildup. Disadvantages include minimal coverage when used alone due to the formula being less concentrated than traditional cement.
