- Material and surface
- Substrate and joint layout
- Loading and maintenance
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Review samples beside retained skirtings, doors and mouldings.
What the drawing needs to explain
Prepare a detail sheet for the door, frame, skirting and wall together. Identify retained elements, refinished surfaces and locations requiring bespoke work.
How to review the result
Review junctions against the detail sheet. Check that retained doors move freely and new layers do not obstruct hardware, hinges or ventilation provisions.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on area, system build-up, substrate repairs and finish. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for poured & seamless floor finishes. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging poured & seamless floor finishes?
A seamless appearance does not mean all structural joints can be removed. The necessary joint layout belongs in the flooring design.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
