Floor Levelling:
Strictly on the level.

More balance!

Height differences between various rooms in your home are not only unsightly but also dangerous tripping hazards.
With PROBAU self-levelling compounds you can easily and safely provide for "more balance" again. PROBAU products are only available in BAUHAUS centres.

Step
1

A room with an old linoleum floor is 2cm higher than an adjoining room.
In order for this to be tiled throughout, the height difference needs to be compensated.

Step
2

As the entrance area has to be quickly accessible again, the choice of a fast-curing levelling compound is recommended.

Step
3

To remove the linoleum, cut the old flooring into strips and tear off in strips from the substrate.

Step
4

Completely remove old glue residue from the substrate with a scraper.

Step
5

Sweep the substrate thoroughly with a broom.

Step
6

Provide edge strips all around the wall base. Then, with the help of a tube level, aim to level the room and transfer the dimensions to the edge strip.

Step
7

Wet the substrate thoroughly with a brush, as this helps the adhesive bond.

Step
8

Mix up the PROBAU Quick Self-levelling Compound
and immediately spread on the substrate, starting from a corner.

Step
9

Support the uniform flow with a rubber squeegee.

Step
10

Deflate the resulting air bubbles by brushing them with the broom.

Step
11

The difference in height of 2 cm is dealt with within the shortest possible time.
And: The area is accessible again after only 3 hours!

Step
12

Finally, cut off the protruding edge strips with a carpet knife.
The very next day, you can lay tiles.

Good to know: The substrate must be sound, clean, dry and in a crack-free condition. To improve the adhesion and elasticity of the PROBAU Self-levelling Compound, we recommend pretreating the subsurface with PROBAU Bonding Emulsion.
