Finding the Floor
Posted on Tuesday, February 4th, 2014 at 9:04 amThere’s a low tech way to determine and set the level of a floor in preparation for the application of a "self" leveling poly/concrete mixture.
- Place a couple free-standing poles at either end of the floor.
- Stretch a string taut between them at any height.
- Level the string with a string-level.
- Measure the height of the string along its entire course; the difference in each measurement will pinpoint the precise depth or height off level below the string.
- Mark high spots.
- In low spots place a screw in the floor at the height required of level.
