What is Floor Screeding?
If you are planning a flooring project, the floor must be even and smooth, with no air pockets or cracks.
A floor compound called liquid screed is applied to your floor to achieve this. This is a liquid floor levelling compound that is poured across your floor. It then needs to dry before you lay your flooring.
Floor screed is a modern-day floor preparation solution that means you will have a high quality and attractive floor that stands the test of time. It is the option we recommend to our Slough customers.
Types of Liquid Screed
In our experience, Slough homeowners and businesses want to get value for money. Therefore, the most cost-effective and time-saving option is a modern-day screeding option.
We generally recommend anhydrite screed when working with our clients. This is because it is stronger yet thinner than traditional floor levelling solutions such as cement screed.
Anhydrite screed also dries much faster and can typically be walked upon after 24-48 hours. Therefore, you may sometimes hear people refer to it as a power screed or rapid cure screed because of its strength and fast-drying properties.
After it has been poured and left to dry in a well-ventilated room, the result is a smooth and airtight floor with low shrinkage and minimal cracking.
A Cost-Effective Solution For Your Slough Home
It stands to reason that your labour costs will be reduced if the liquid screed is quicker and easier to pour and dries faster. It also means you’ll know precisely when you can move onto the next stage of your home or business improvement work, so no one’s timetable will be disrupted.
In addition, liquid screed is a highly effective option when we lay underfloor heating. It is more thermally conductive and reduces energy consumption. This means that your floor will take less time to heat up, so you will save on heating costs.
