In the context of "The Complete Subfloor Leveling & Repair Course 2026," which of the following is the MOST critical factor to consider when selecting a self-leveling underlayment (SLU) for a severely crowned subfloor with a slope exceeding 1/2 inch over 10 feet?
The SLU's working time, prioritizing a longer pot life to accommodate complex application in a sloped area.
The SLU's aggregate size, opting for finer aggregates for a smoother finish regardless of application challenge.
The SLU's sag resistance and slump characteristics, ensuring it can hold its shape on inclines without excessive flow.
The SLU's compressive strength, as higher strength is always better for structural integrity.
Q2Domain Verified
According to "The Complete Subfloor Leveling & Repair Course 2026," when addressing a localized soft spot in a plywood subfloor caused by a past moisture issue, what is the MOST appropriate initial repair strategy before considering a self-leveling compound?
Removing and replacing the damaged section of plywood with a new, properly fastened piece.
Sanding down the soft area to create a uniform surface for better adhesion of subsequent layers.
Directly applying a thick layer of self-leveling compound over the affected area to encapsulate the weakness.
Injecting a rigid epoxy or structural adhesive into the delaminated plywood to re-bond the layers.
Q3Domain Verified
In "The Complete Subfloor Leveling & Repair Course 2026," what is the primary reason for meticulously cleaning and priming a concrete subfloor before applying a self-leveling underlayment, even if it appears visually clean?
To remove microscopic dust and laitance, which can compromise the bond between the SLU and the concrete.
To ensure the concrete's porosity is uniform, preventing uneven drying of the SLU.
To slightly increase the surface temperature of the concrete, promoting faster curing of the SLU.
To create a bond breaker, allowing the SLU to be removed more easily in the future if necessary.
