Sub-floor smoothing compounds, or underlays, are cement-based materials generally fluid in use but set and harden to form a hard, absorbent, smooth surface suitable to receive floor-coverings. They can be used to smooth out imperfections in the sub-floor. They may also be used as a thin screed, by the addition of aggregate, to provide a level floor where the necessary thickness for a conventional cement and sand screed is not available.
