subfloor, or removed before installing your new Earthscape luxury vinyl tile and plank

flooring. Floor must be smooth and in optimal condition, otherwise any defect may show up

in the surface of your new floor. If the subfloor has cracks or small holes, it will be necessary

to patch it with non-shrinking Portland based cement with latex additive.
