Floor Screeding Inverurie Scotland (AB51)

It may be a requirement, depending on the intended use of the space, for a survey by a structural engineer to abide by building regulations on load requirements, flex strength and point loadings of the screed floor.

Skilled and qualified workers are essential to a successful outcome and will extend the life of your floor by using the right type of screed for your room's intended purpose. The correct blend of screed and the techniques used in laying it are also vital to ensure the final intergrity of your floor surface.

There are several screeding contractors in the Inverurie area so if possible get multiple quotes for your screeding project before choosing a company and know to what standard of finish it's for. The SR (Surface Regularity) finish is the figure to keep your eye on when getting a quotation from Inverurie screeding companies. SR1 is the best standard, and whilst SR2 and SR3 might be less costly initially, they do not guarantee a totally even or flat surface. Any errors in the screeding (as might arise with SR2 or SR3) may cause problems in laying flooring because of ridges, flat spots, indentations in the floor surface.

The rules and regulations set out in in the British Standards BS8204 must be observed by all Inverurie floor screeding contractors and they should also hold accreditation with the manufacturers of any specialist screeding materials (Gypsol, Cemfloor, Flowcrete etc.) to prove their competence and safe working practices. A company holding accreditations indicates that they have been trained and assessed in the use of these screeding products and can deliver a high quality service in all aspects of their installation.

Commercial screeders in Inverurie will generally undertake larger screeding projects in shops, warehouses, hospitals, schools, factories and pubs.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - A mixture of sand and cement which is ideal for everyday domestic use. The ratios involved in standard screeds are five parts sand to one part cement. The standard screed will dry at a rate of 1mm thickness each day.

Advanced Drying and Fast Drying Screeds - If you need to move forward urgently with the work due to time restraints, this screed dries much faster than standard flooring screeds. They're usually a fibre reinforced kind of screed which can dry at a rate of between 3-7mm/day per day and are used in time-sensitive projects.

Screeding Quotes Inverurie Scotland

Industrial and Heavy Duty Screed - A screed that's designed for high load and heavy traffic areas where maximum durability and strength is essential.

Polymer Screeds - Provides a high level of strength with a lower thickness. Manufacturer's guidelines for setting times differ across the various product ranges.

Liquid or Self-Levelling Screeds - Used to produce the highest quality of finish, especially in SR1 levels of screeding, by a latex and cement mixture. The self-levelling compound provides a smooth and clean surface over a damaged floor or rough substrate to enable all flooring materials to be laid. This liquid screed can be laid to a thickness of just one millimetre, but will still provide a high strength base for a selection of flooring materials.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The preferred option where under floor heating is being installed in residential homes in Inverurie. The special fibres in this screed mix enhance it's strength and durability whilst also protecting against thermal cracking and shrinkage. It dries out at the same rate as a standard screed of 1mm per day.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Good preparation is crucial for a high quality screed surface that will be hard wearing and durable. The existing floor surface should be cleaned to eliminate any paint, debris, oil and grease which might adversely affect the adhesion of the screeding.

Screeding Near Inverurie (AB51)

Any cleaning chemicals that are used in this stage should leave no residues, and the floor base must be permitted to dry out naturally. It's essential to fix any crevices or cracks in the floor surface to prevent them being mirrored and "travelling" up into the freshly screeded floor. An on-site survey will enable the screeding company to highlight this preparation work and complete it before beginning to pour the screeding.

A DPM (damp proof membrane) will be applied after the preparation work has been completed to prevent ground moisture affecting the flooring materials and screed. Different gauges of polythene sheeting may be used as a DPM and also serve as a barrier for the screed and any insulation materials.

If your home is located in a place where radon gas is found a supplementary barrier layer is necessary to stop radon gas from entering. An air-tight membrane may be sufficient in locations with relatively low emissions of radon, but in more severe situations there may need to be a more sophisticated extraction and ventilation system to remove any ground penetrating radon gases.

The final step of the surface preparation process is the painting or spraying of a sealer or primer. A primer helps with the screed to bond to the base surface and different varieties exist based on which type of screed is being used. These products need professional technicians to apply them in the correct ratios by using airless sprays and other bespoke equipment.

If you are going to be installing underfloor heating, now is the time that it will need to be correctly laid out and installed. The cables and heating pipes are firmly attached to insulation panels to prevent any movement and make certain that they are positioned correctly. Under floor heating is one of the most efficient ways to heat a room and a skillfully installed system will deliver even warmth in all areas of the floor.

Floor Screed Inverurie (Dialling code	01467)

Obviously, if you're not putting in under floor heating, you can skip this step and get on with applying the floor screed. Your screeding specialist will give you advice and guidance on which type of screed is appropriate for your requirements, according to your proposed use of the room. Bear in mind that even quick drying and advanced screeds have a minimum of 24 hours before you're able to walk on any laid surfaces and a minimum 3 days before any flooring materials can be applied. Manufacturer's drying guidelines for standard and heavy duty screeds must be observed so as to achieve a quality finish and end up with an even and stable floor surface.

You can check the SR level of the completed screed once it is solidified enough for walking on. Through the use of a two metre straight-edge the floor surface is checked for any ridges, dips and deviations in the surface of the screed.

  • SR1 - Over the whole screed area, if there aren't any disparities greater than three millimetres from the straight-edge, then you've got a top quality SR1 specification surface.
  • SR2 - If the screed deviates from the straight edge by 5 millimetres or less it is classified as SR2 quality and is the standard for commercial and industrial floors.
  • SR3 - If the deviation is 10mm or less the quality of the screeding is categorised as SR3 and is suitable for utility and garage areas.

It may also be necessary for a qualified structural engineer to conduct a soundness test. The testing will ensure your new screed surface is suitable for the load bearing requirements set down in the original site survey. The screed could be subjected to what is known as a drop hammer test to gauge strength and flexibility in different areas. Only certified structural engineers applying the BS8204 regulations are permitted to perform such tests and sign off on the structural safety of screed flooring.
