Floor Screeding Holyhead

Floor Screeding Holyhead Wales (LL65): If you are restoring a property or basement, are aiming to install under floor heating or have an uneven or damaged floor, then you will need to find a specialist floor screeding company to assist you. Allowing you to lay a suitable flooring material, (carpets, boards, tiles etc) over it, screeding provides a smooth, level finish to a rough sub-base. A floor screed is an important component of most building and restoration projects in Holyhead.

FLOOR SCREEDING COMPANIES HOLYHEAD

Supplying the experience and proper working methods to establish a perfect base for your floors, a screeding firm in Holyhead can help you no matter what size or shape of room or area you are renovating. They will be able to advise you about the right sort of screed that your project requires, and the best methods for applying and installing it.

A professional screeding specialist will also notify you if a structural engineer is necessary for your undertaking, to check on load bearing, point loadings and flex strength that your screed floor might require to conform with current building regulations and British Standards.

A qualified and skilled work force is imperative for a successful outcome and will extend your floor's lifespan through the use of the correct form of screed for your room's allocated purpose. There are many different types of floor screeding and selecting the correct mix and installation method is vital to create a top quality floor that is both fit for purpose and hard-wearing.

Before selecting a screeding contractor from those based in the Holyhead area, ask to what standard of finish they're basing their quote, and also make sure that you get two or three price quotes from different companies. For residential homes a quote will usually be provided for a Surface Regularity (SR) calculation of SR1 or SR2. 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 area. An SR2 or SR3 standard could mean there are ridges or flat spots that may cause issues when laying your final flooring surface (carpet, tile, wood etc).

British Standards BS8204 lays down the regulations and guidelines that all Holyhead screeding companies must follow, and if using specialist screeding solutions, (Flowcrete, Gypsol, Cemfloor etc), they should be accredited by the manufacturers as being skilled and trained in their use. The training and testing of a screeding company by a manufacturer is highlighted by the use of the accreditation scheme, and gives assurances of safe working practices and reliability on any flooring project involving their materials.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - A mixture of sand and cement which is ideal for regular residential usage. 5 parts sand to 1 part cement is the normal mix for standard screed. After being laid a standard flooring screed sets at a rate of just 1mm/day.

Liquid or Self-Levelling Screeds - A latex and cement mixture which can produce the highest standard SR1 finish. The self-levelling compound provides a smooth and clean surface over a rough substrate or damaged floor to allow all flooring materials to be laid. These can be as little as 1mm in depth, and because of the latex polymers, will still provide a high strength finish.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - Used mostly with underfloor heating and is the favoured choice in these projects. The improved strength and flexibility provided by the special fibres within the screed help protect the floor from cracking and shrinkage due to heat. At approximately 1mm per day, it has an identical curing rate to standard screed.

Polymer Screeds - An extremely high strength solution where a reduced screed thickness is necessary. Because of their different chemical compositions, polymer screeds have varying curing times which can be verified by studying manufacturer's own product guidelines.

Industrial and Heavy Duty Screed - A screed that is designed for heavy traffic and high load areas where the maximum possible durability and strength is vital.

Fast Drying and Advanced Drying Screeds - As the name suggest, this screed dries at a quicker rate and allows you to use the screeded area much faster. They are usually a fibre reinforced kind of screed which can dry out at a rate of between 3-7mm per day and are used in time dependent flooring projects.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Good preparation is crucial for a high quality screed surface that will be durable and hard wearing. Any grease, paint, debris and oil on the existing floor level can affect the adhesion of the screed, and must be eradicated.

Any cleaning products that are used in this process should leave no residues, and the floor base must be allowed to dry out naturally. It is necessary to mend any cracks in the surface to stop them being mirrored and "travelling" up into your freshly screeded floor. A decent Holyhead screeding contractor will pick up on these issues during a site survey and make certain all preparations are finished before moving on to the next steps in the screeding process.

A damp proof membrane (DPM) will be put down after the preparation work has been concluded to prevent ground moisture affecting the flooring materials and screed. There may be two or three layers of varying thicknesses of polythene to act as barriers between the screed and the insulation layer.

If the area is susceptible to radon then one additional barrier is necessary to stop the gas from entering from the ground. An airtight membrane might be enough in locations with low radon measurements, however in more extreme situations there might need to be a more complicated ventilation and extraction system to remove any harmful radon gas.

As soon as the base has been properly prepared and all DPMs installed, a primer or sealer is then applied. Sealers and primers assist with the bonding process and are specialist applications specifically designed for the type of screed that is being used. Due to their specialist nature, only qualified screeding contractors in Holyhead should be entrusted with using them safely and correctly and through the use of bespoke equipment for the task.

If you're installing under floor heating, now is the time that it will need to be correctly set out and installed. The heating pipes and wires are firmly attached to insulation panels to prevent any movement and ensure they're laid in the correct position. When professionally installed an underfloor heating system is an efficient way to warm up a room and decent quality screeding will retain its heat, creating an even level of warmth across the floor surface.

If you aren't installing under floor heating the screed can now be mixed and prepared on site and poured. Your screeding company will give you advice on which type of screed is appropriate for your requirements, in line with your intended use of the room area. Remember that even advanced and quick drying screeds have a minimum of 24 hours before you can walk over any laid surfaces and at least three days before any floor coverings can be fitted. If you're using standard or heavy duty screeds the drying time is longer and you must follow the manufacturer's guidelines in order to get the best finish for your floor.

You can evaluate the SR level of the completed screeding as soon as it is hard enough for walking on. Using a 2 metre straight-edge the floor surface is checked for any ridges, deviations and dips in the surface of the screed.

• SR1 - SR1 is the highest level and permits only three millimetres of disparity from the straight-edge.

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

• SR3 - For utility floors where the quality of finish is relatively unimportant SR3 is the classification and has a deviation measurement of 10 millimetres or less.

If your screed floor has been laid with particular loading in mind then a qualified structural engineer is going to be necessary to conduct the assessment. This test will determine the overall strength of the screeding and its viability for the proposed use. An assessment called the "drop hammer test" is conducted on various areas of the screed and the results recorded. Any screed flooring that's got point load requirements must be okayed by a trained structural engineer following the British Standards BS8204 guidelines.
