Undercutting Fireplace Hearths for Flooring
When finishing to fire-place hearths, stone walls and other irregular shaped obstacles with a hard surface floor, the best way to achieve a clean good-looking finish is to under-cut or remove a shallow, narrow section of material from the bottom.

After the preparation work has been completed (the cleaning, flattening and undercutting) we use a trowel applied moisture cured urethane water vapor barrier directly on the concrete. This is a product manufactured by Bostik adhesives called MVP4 and is used as a system in conjunction with their urethane wood floor adhesives. This is usually a sixteen hour overnight dry time and creates a very low perm vapor retardation membrane thirty mils thick that accepts the adhesion of finished wood floors.
