In this project, we applied a high-quality self-leveling flooring system to create a perfectly smooth and even surface, specifically designed as a crucial preparation step for the subsequent epoxy flake coating installation. Ensuring a level substrate not only guarantees a flawless finish but also significantly improves adhesion and durability of the epoxy flake system applied afterward.
This versatile base supports various topcoat options, allowing for customized finishes that meet your aesthetic preferences and functional needs — from decorative flake blends to protective clear coats. Self-leveling flooring is especially essential when the existing floor is severely damaged, uneven, or beyond simple repair. It restores the surface to a like-new condition, providing the perfect foundation for a professional-grade garage floor that performs well under heavy use.
Proper concrete preparation is critical for a successful epoxy application — you can learn more about why this step is essential here: Concrete Prep Before Epoxy.
If your garage floor is uneven or damaged and you skip the self-leveling preparation, it can lead to several problems:
Sometimes minor repairs to the floor surface are enough, but when the concrete is significantly uneven or damaged, self-leveling is essential. Skipping this step in such cases is not an option if you want a durable, flawless epoxy flake finish.
Self-leveling flooring creates a perfectly smooth and stable base that’s not only ideal for epoxy flake coatings but also compatible with a wide range of other floor finishes. This versatility makes it a popular choice for various applications and design preferences.
Where and How It Works:

AD Technology specializes in professional floor leveling services to prepare your concrete surfaces for any type of flooring. Whether it’s a residential garage or commercial space, we ensure the substrate is perfectly flat and ready for coatings, tiles, or other finishes. As a reliable floor leveling contractor, we use industry-leading materials and techniques to deliver lasting results that stand up to daily use.
Our team begins by cleaning and preparing the concrete surface, performing necessary concrete repair and leveling to address cracks or damage. We then apply a specialized primer to promote strong adhesion. The self-leveling compound is mixed and poured, automatically spreading across the surface to create a perfectly smooth and flat base. Whether you’re preparing for epoxy coatings, self-leveling for tile, laminate, or other flooring systems, this step ensures long-term performance. Depending on site conditions, the concrete floor leveling compound cures within 4 to 12 hours, allowing for topcoat application the next day. While weather and humidity can affect drying times, our focus remains on delivering high-quality, durable results with efficiency.
Yes, you can! After applying a self-leveling compound, it’s absolutely possible to leave the floor uncovered — you don’t necessarily need to install tile, laminate, or an epoxy coating. In fact, painting the leveled surface can give it a sleek, modern look, especially in residential or studio-style spaces.
However, it’s important to note that you cannot leave a self-leveling surface unsealed. Without a proper clear sealer, the material can absorb moisture, darken, or degrade over time. Self-leveling floors are not designed for long-term exposure without protection.
A sealing layer is essential to protect the surface and extend its lifespan — even if you’re not planning to add any decorative topcoat.
