FLOOR SCREEDING EXPERTS HETTON-LE-HOLE

Providing a superb level of service, a competent floor screeding company in Hetton-le-Hole will have the appropriate expertise, equipment and know-how, regardless how big or small the area is that you require to be levelled. After a thorough evaluation of your screeding project, they will be in a position to inform you about which method of laying is best suited to your circumstances, and which is the best kind of screed to use.

It might be necessary, contingent on the intended use of the area, for a survey by a structural engineer to abide by building regulations on flex strength, point loadings and load bearing of the screed floor.

Qualified and skilled trades-people are essential to a successful outcome and will extend your floor's lifespan by using the correct type of screed for the proposed purpose of your room. There are many different kinds of floor screeding and picking the right mix and installation process is essential if you are to achieve a high quality floor that is durable and fit for purpose.

There are several screeding specialists in and around Hetton-le-Hole so try to get multiple quotes for your screeding project before selecting a contractor and know to what standard of finish it's for. The quote could be based on what's called the SR, or Surface Regularity calculation. Each of the 3 SR levels provide different levels of finish, with SR1 offering the highest quality, with the least amount of deviation over the surface area. Any errors in the screeding (as might occur with SR2 or SR3) can cause problems in laying flooring owing to indentations, ridges, flat spots in the floor surface.

British Standards BS8204 lays down the regulations and guidelines that all Hetton-le-Hole screeding installers are required to follow, and if applying specialist screeding solutions, (Cemfloor, Flowcrete, Gypsol etc), they must be certified by the manufacturers as being skilled and trained in their use. A contractor holding accreditations demonstrates that they have been assessed and trained in the use of these products and can provide a high quality standard in all areas of their installation.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - This is ideal for basic domestic use and is a mixture of sand and cement. 5 parts sand to 1 part cement is the typical mixture for standard screeds. The standard screed will dry at a rate of 1mm thickness each day.

Polymer Screeds - A high strength flooring solution where a reduced screed thickness is needed. The curing times vary as outlined by product guidelines.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The professional's choice for domestic use over the top of underfloor heating. The fibres in the screed mix improve overall durability and strength while also protecting against thermal shrinkage and cracking. At about one millimetre per day, it has an identical drying rate to standard screed.

Self-Levelling or Liquid Screeds - A latex and cement mixture which can achieve the highest standard of finish to SR1 levels. Primarily used to finish off a poor substrate level or damaged floor to enable the laying of a new flooring surface, like tiles over the top of it. These can be as little as one millimetre in depth, and due to the latex polymers, will still provide a high strength finish.

Advanced Drying and Fast Drying Screeds - As the name would suggest, these screeds dry quickly and allow you to use the screeded area much sooner. These are normally a fibre reinforced type of screed that dries out at a rate of between 3-7mm per day and are employed in time critical flooring projects.

Industrial and Heavy Duty Screed - Where levels of traffic are high or heavy loading on the floor is required, heavy duty screeds provide maximum durability and strength.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Screeding installers will have to prepare the area before proceeding with any other work so as to ensure a hard wearing and quality screed flooring. The existing floor surfaces should be cleaned to eliminate any debris, oil, grease and paint that might adversely affect the bond of the screeding.

If cleaning products were used it is important to remove any traces of soap or detergent, and leave the floor surface to dry naturally. It's necessary to repair any cracks in the base to stop them being reflected and "travelling" upwards into your newly screeded floor. A site survey will allow your Hetton-le-Hole screeding contractor to identify these preparation areas and complete them before commencing to pour the screeding.

To shield the screeding layer and flooring materials from dampness rising up from the ground, a damp proof membrane (DPM) will have to be laid. There might be 2 or 3 layers of varying thicknesses of polythene to act as a barrier between the insulation layer and screed.

If your house is situated in a place where radon is present an extra barrier layer is needed to prevent radon gas from seeping through. This could be as simple as an air-tight membrane, or in more serious instances a ventilation and extraction system will need to be installed beneath the floor screed to draw out any inflow of radon gas from ground level.

Once the base has been prepared and all DPMs installed, a primer or sealant is then put on. These sealers and primers will make sure that the screed bonds successfully to the base and help achieve a good quality finished floor. Because of their specialist nature, only qualified screeding specialists in Hetton-le-Hole are capable of using them safely and correctly and using equipment that's made for the task.

This is the time that under floor heating can be installed and laid out in the correct manner. The heating pipes and cables are securely mounted on insulation panels to stop any movement and make sure that they are laid in the correct position. When professionally installed an under floor heating system is an effective way to warm up a room and high quality screed will retain its heat, producing an even heat right across the floor surface.

The screed can now be prepared in situ and spread onto the base surface. Your intended use of the room will help the screeding company on which type of screed is perfect for your requirements. Bear in mind that even advanced and quick drying screeds have a minimum of 24 hours before you are able to walk over any laid surfaces and at least seventy two hours before any flooring can be fitted. Manufacturer's drying guidelines for standard and heavy duty screeds should be followed so as to achieve a quality finish and provide an even and stable surface.

The SR standard of your screeding can be confirmed once it's set enough to be walked upon. The test involves using a 2 mtr straight edge laid on the surface and any fluctuations from true are measured.

• SR1 - Disparities of three millimetres or less as measured across the entire area shows your screed floor to be of the finest quality and is classed as SR1.

• SR2 - The normal standard flooring in industrial and commercial builds is classed as SR2 and has a maximum deviation of five millimetres across the entire floor surface.

• SR3 - If the deviation around the whole space is 10 millimetres or less the screeding quality is classified as SR3 and is fine for garage and utility areas.

If your screed floor has been laid with particular load bearing requirements in mind then a structural engineer is going to be needed to perform the tests. This test will establish the strength of the screeded surface and its viability for the intended use. This can include a drop hammer test which records specific data on the strength and flexibility of the screed. Only qualified structural engineers heeding the British Standards BS8204 regulations are allowed to carry out such testing and sign off on the structural safety of the screeding.
