Floor Screeding Gorseinon

Floor Screeding Gorseinon Wales (SA4): A floor screeding professional can help with renovations, help install under floor heating or level an uneven or damaged floor on your Gorseinon home, when necessary. Floor screeding delivers a smooth finish to a basic sub-base floor, and enables you to lay your final layer of flooring material, (carpets, tiles, boards etc) on top of it. Floor screeding will provide a durable, quality finish for virtually any room.

FLOOR SCREEDING CONTRACTORS GORSEINON

An established floor screeding company in Gorseinon will have knowledge and experience to help you achieve a perfect floor in whichever size room you're working on. They will be ready to advise you on the right type of screed that your project requires, and how best to apply and install it.

It may be necessary, contingent on the intended use of the space, for a structural engineering survey to conform to building regulations on flex strength, load requirements and point loadings of the screed floor.

Qualified and skilled tradesmen are imperative for a successful outcome and will extend your floor's lifespan by making use of the correct type of screed for your room's allocated purpose. The correct mix of screed and the way it is laid is also crucial to ensure the final intergrity of your floor.

There are a number of screeding contractors in the Gorseinon area so if possible get multiple estimates for your project before picking out a contractor and know to what standard of finish it's for. For residential properties an estimate will usually be given for an SR (Surface Regularity) calculation of SR1 or SR2. SR1 is the highest standard, and while SR2 and SR3 may be cheaper initially, they don't guarantee a totally flat or even floor surface. Any errors in the final screeding can cause problems in laying flooring owing to ridges, indentations, flat spots in the surface.

The guidelines and regulations specified in the British Standards BS8204 must be followed by all Gorseinon floor screeding companies and they must also be approved by the manufacturers of specialist screeding materials (Cemfloor, Gypsol, Flowcrete etc.) to prove their safe working practices and competence. A contractor holding accreditations shows that they've been assessed and trained in using these screeding products and can provide a high standard of service in all aspects of their installation.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - This is acceptable for basic domestic use and is a blend of sand and cement. This mixture comprises a 5:1 ratio of sand to cement. Once its been laid this 5:1 ratio dries at a rate of one millimetre per day.

Industrial and Heavy Duty Screed - Designed for maximum durability and strength in places where traffic is expected to be high or heavy loading on the floor is needed.

Polymer Screeds - A high strength solution where a reduced screed thickness is necessary. The drying times for these vary according to proprietary product guidelines.

Fast Drying and Advanced Drying Screeds - If you have to use the area as quickly as possible a fast drying screed can be used. Most of the fast or advanced drying screeds are of the fibre reinforced kind and are suitable for a wide variety of projects where the quicker drying rate of 3-7mm/day is a welcome advantage.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The expert's choice for domestic use over the top of underfloor heating. The improved strength and flex provided by the fibres within the screed help protect the flooring from thermal shrinkage and cracking. It's got a drying rate of one millimetre per day.

Liquid or Self-Levelling Screeds - When the highest possible standard of finish is required this formula of cement and latex is used to create SR1 quality floor screeding. The self-levelling compound provides a clean and smooth surface over a rough substrate or damaged floor to allow all flooring materials to be laid. Even with a depth of only 1mm, the latex polymers within the screed provide a high strength surface for a wide range of uses.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Preparation is crucial for a top quality screed surface that will be hard wearing and durable. It's vital that all contaminants such as debris, paint, oil or grease is eradicated from the floor surface before laying any screed, as these can affect the adhesion process that a quality floor screed demands.

If any products are used in this process it's important to ensure that no residues of detergents or soaps are left on the surface and it's allowed to dry out naturally. If screeding over a cement or stone floor then all cracks should be mended to prevent them from "travelling" through your screed layer and causing imperfections on the finished surface. During a site survey your Gorseinon screeding contractor will notice what preparations are needed before starting to work on screeding the floor.

To protect the flooring materials and screeding layer from moisture rising up through the ground, a damp proof membrane (DPM) will have to be laid. The DPM is made of thick polythene sheeting and various layers could be used to act as a moisture barrier and air insulating layer for the screed.

A further air-tight barrier might be necessary if your property is in an area which is known to be susceptible to radon gas. If radon is present in large amounts then a complete ventilation system may be installed under the layer of screed which will extract any gases that are seeping in from the ground.

The final step of surface preparation is the painting or spraying of a sealant or primer. These primers and sealers will ensure the screed bonds successfully to the base and help to accomplish a top quality finished floor. These materials need professional technicians to apply them in the correct proportions by using custom-made equipment, such as airless sprays.

Underfloor heating can now be laid out, installed and checked before screeding is applied. The cabling and heating pipes are securely attached to insulation panels to stop any movement and make sure they're held in the correct position. Underfloor heating is one of the most efficient ways to heat a room and an expertly installed system will deliver even level of warmth in all areas of the floor.

Of course, if you're not installing underfloor heating, you can skip this stage and apply the screed. Your proposed use of the room will assist your screeding company on what kind of floor screed is ideal for your needs. For advanced and quick drying screeds there'll be at least twenty four hours delay before it can be walked over, and a further Three days minimum before you can lay any flooring materials. Manufacturer's drying guidelines for standard and heavy duty screeds should be followed in order to achieve a quality finish and provide an even and stable surface.

The SR standard of your screeding can be confirmed once it's solidified sufficiently to be walked on. The test involves using a 2 metre straight edge laid down upon the surface and any deviations from true are measured.

• SR1 - Over the entire floor area, if there are no disparities of more than three millimetres from the straight-edge, then you have a top specification SR1 standard surface.

• SR2 - If the screeded floor has a deviation from the straight-edge of 5mm or less it is considered SR2 quality and is the standard for commercial and industrial projects.

• SR3 - SR3 is basic utility standard where a perfect finish is not needed. This classification can have a maximum permissible deviation depth of ten millimetres.

If your screed has been installed with specific load bearing requirements in mind then a qualified structural engineer is going to be required to conduct these soundness tests. Using specialist equipment the engineer will assess the screeded surface strength and viability of use in a load bearing environment. A drop hammer test will be performed at various areas on the screed and the outcomes noted. Any screeding that has load bearing requirements must be sanctioned by a qualified structural engineer applying the British Standards BS8204 regulations.
