It might be necessary, depending on the proposed use of the space, for a survey by a structural engineer to conform to building regulations on flex strength, point loadings and load bearing of the screed floor.

Working with a highly trained and qualified contractor will ensure you get the right kind of screed for the room's allocated purpose and get the maximum lifespan out of the resulting flooring. The correct mix of screed and the way it is laid is also critical to guarantee the ultimate intergrity of your floor.

Before picking out a screeding company from any based in the Market Drayton area, ask to what standard of finish they are basing their estimate, and also ensure you get multiple quotations.

This means that you may have to correct any patches that might cause issues when laying your finished flooring material.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - This is acceptable for normal domestic usage and comprises a mix of sand and cement. The ratios involved in standard screeds are 5 parts sand to 1 part cement. This 5:1 ratio standard flooring screed will dry out at a rate of one millimetre per day after laying.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The expert's choice for domestic use on top of underfloor heating. The fibres in this screed mix increase overall durability and strength while also safeguarding against thermal shrinkage and cracking. It's got a drying rate of 1mm per day.

Polymer Screeds - These provide a high level of strength with a reduced thickness. The drying times vary according to proprietary product guidelines.

Industrial and Heavy Duty Screed - A screed designed for heavy traffic and high load areas where maximum durability and strength is very important.

Liquid or Self-Levelling Screeds - When a high standard of finish is needed this compound of cement and latex is employed to create SR1 quality screeding. The self-levelling compound provides a clean and smooth surface over a damaged floor or rough substrate to enable all flooring materials to be laid. These can be as little as one millimetre in depth, and thanks to the latex polymers, will still provide a high strength finish.

Advanced Drying and Fast Drying Screeds - If you have to use the area at the earliest opportunity a fast drying screed can be used. They're typically a fibre reinforced kind of screed which can dry out at a rate of between 3-7mm/day per day and are employed in time critical flooring projects.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Good preparation is crucial for a top quality screed surface that will be durable and hard wearing. Any paint, oil, grease and debris on the original floor level can affect the adhesion of the screed, and should be removed.

Screeding Near Market Drayton (TF9)

If cleaning products were used it is vital to remove any traces of soap etc, and leave the floor surface to dry naturally. If screeding over a cement or stone floor all cracks should be repaired to stop them from "travelling" up through your screed layer and causing deviations on the final surface. A site survey will enable your Market Drayton screeding contractor to pinpoint this preparation work and complete it before beginning to apply the screed layer.

To protect the flooring materials and screed layer from dampness rising up through the ground, a damp proof membrane (DPM) must be laid. There might be two or three layers of different thicknesses of polythene to act as barriers between the insulation layer and screed.

If your home is located in an area where radon gas is present an extra barrier layer is required to prevent radon gas from entering. If radon occurs in severe doses then a complete ventilation system might be needed under the layer of screed which will remove any gases that might seep in from the ground.

Once the floor base has been properly prepared and all membranes installed, a primer or sealer is then put on. A primer assists in the screed bonding process to the base and different types exist based upon which screed type is being applied. These substances require certified contractors to apply them in the right proportions by using tailor-made equipment, such as airless sprays.

If required, this is the time that under floor heating can be installed and laid out in the correct manner. The underfloor heating system will be carefully positioned and mounted firmly on insulation panels to prevent any movement during screed application. Warmth will be evenly spread across a floor area in a professionally installed underfloor heating system, and along with it being an efficient choice of heating, it is an ideal choice for the majority of Market Drayton home renovation projects.

The screed can now be prepared on site and poured onto the base. Your screeding specialist will have given you guidance and advice on which form of screed is best for your requirements, according to your proposed use of the room area. Be aware that even quick drying and advanced screeds have a minimum of 24 hours before you're able to walk over any screeded surfaces and at least three days before any flooring materials can be applied. This timescale is longer for heavy duty and standard screeds and the manufacture's guidelines should be followed to the letter to create the best finish and durability of the floor.

Once the screeding has set it can be quality checked to ascertain its SR level. Using a 2 metre straight-edge the surface is checked for any deviations, dips and ridges in the surface of the screed.

  • SR1 - Over the whole floor area, if there aren't any disparities of more than 3mm from the straight-edge, then you've got a top level SR1 standard surface.
  • SR2 - SR2 is the classification for normal standard floors in industrial and commercial projects and can deviate from the straight-edge by up to 5 millimetres.
  • SR3 - If the deviation around the whole space is 10mm or less the screeding quality is categorised as SR3 and is the standard required for utility and garage areas.

If your screed floor has been laid with particular loading in mind then a structural engineer is going to be needed to perform these soundness tests. Using specialised equipment the engineer will establish the screed surface strength and its suitability for use in a load bearing environment. The screed layer should be given a drop hammer test to assess strength and flexibility in different areas. Only trained structural engineers observing the BS8204 guidelines are allowed to perform these testing and sign off on the structural safety of the screeding.
