Bathroom Subfloor Installation Services
Flat, dry, and fastened subfloors built for tile and finishing
A bathroom subfloor needs to be flat, dry, well fastened, and stiff enough to support the finished floor. We prepare and install subfloors that meet those standards so tile, waterproofing, and other finishes have a sound base.
Subfloor work is part of every full bathroom renovation we run, and we also handle subfloor-only scopes when an old floor is failing or being prepared for new finishes.
Flat and level
Subfloors leveled and flattened with self-levelling compound, shimming, or replacement as needed.
Properly fastened
Existing subfloor checked for movement, screwed and re-fastened where joists allow.
Stiff enough for tile
Built up where needed so tile installations meet deflection requirements and resist cracking.
Ready for waterproofing
Subfloor prepared so waterproofing membranes and tile installation can begin cleanly.
Flat dry and ready for tile
What goes into bathroom subfloor work
Levelling, fastening, and prep planned for tile and finishing
Subfloor work is hidden once the bathroom is finished, so it has to be right the first time. We check for movement, level the surface, fasten loose areas, and build up as needed before any waterproofing or tile.
