TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - Frequently used in residential projects where the mix of sand and cement is perfectly acceptable for regular footfall usage. The ratios involved in standard screeds are five parts sand to one part cement. The standard flooring screed dries at a rate of one millimetre thickness each day.

Advanced Drying and Fast Drying Screeds - If you need to progress urgently with the flooring because of time constraints, these screeds dry much faster than standard flooring screeds. Most of the fast or advanced drying screeds are of the fibre reinforced kind and are suitable for a wide range of projects where the swifter drying rate of 3-7mm is a considerable advantage.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The first choice where underfloor heating is being installed in domestic homes in Uttoxeter. This is due to the improved strength and protection against thermal shrinkage and cracking provided by the fibres within the screed mix. At roughly one millimetre per day, it has the same drying rate to standard floor screed.

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

Polymer Screeds - Provides a high level of strength with a lower thickness. On account of their different chemical compositions, polymer screeds have varying curing times which can be verified by viewing manufacturer's guidelines.

Liquid or Self-Levelling Screeds - Used to provide the highest quality of finish, especially where SR1 levels are required, by a cement and latex material. Mainly used to finish off a poor substrate level or damaged floor to enable the laying of a new flooring surface, such as vinyl planks over the top of it. Even with a depth of just one millimetre, the latex polymers within the screed provide a high strength surface for a variety of uses.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Preparation is crucial for a top quality screed surface that will be durable and hard wearing. Any oil, grease, paint and debris on the original floor level can adversely affect the bonding of the screed, and must be eradicated.

Any cleaning products which are used during this phase should leave no residues, and the floor surface must be permitted to dry by itself naturally. It's necessary to mend any cracks or crevices in the base to avoid them being visible and "travelling" up into the freshly screeded floor. A trustworthy Uttoxeter screeding company will pick up on such problems during a site survey and make certain that all preparations are finished before pressing on with the next steps in the floor screeding process.

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

If the area where you live is susceptible to radon gas then a further barrier is needed to prevent this harmful gas from entering from the ground. If radon gas occurs in severe doses then a full ventilation and extraction system may be installed under the layer of screed which will remove any gases that are seeping in from the ground.

As soon as these steps have been taken the screeders will put on a primer or sealer to the prepared floor base. A primer assists in the screed bonding process to the base and different varieties exist according to which kind of screed is being used. These substances require certified tradesmen to apply them in the correct ratios by using bespoke equipment, such as airless sprays.

Before any screed is poured, any underfloor heating will now be laid out. The underfloor heating system is laid out in the correct pattern and mounted firmly on insulation panels to stop potential movement in the course of the screed application. When properly installed an under floor heating system is an excellent way to warm a room and high quality screed will retain its heat, producing an even level of warmth across the floor.

The screeding can now be prepared on site and spread onto the floor base. Your proposed use of the room will help your screeding company on what sort of screed is appropriate for your needs. Bear in mind that even quick drying screeds have a minimum of 24 hours before you're able to walk over any screeded surface and at least 72 hours before any flooring can be fitted. Such periods will be longer for standard and heavy duty screeds and the manufacture's instructions must be followed to achieve the optimal finish and longevity of the floor.

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

  • SR1 - Over the entire screed area, if there are no disparities greater than three millimetres from the straight-edge, then you have a top specification SR1 standard surface.
  • SR2 - The normal standard flooring in commercial and industrial builds is classed as SR2 and has a maximum possible deviation of five millimetres across the whole floor.
  • SR3 - For a utility area or room where the finish is relatively inconsequential the SR3 is the classification and has a deviation measurement of 10mm or less.

If your screeding has been installed with specific loading in mind then a structural engineer will be needed to carry out the assessment. This test will ascertain the strength of the screeding and its viability for the intended use. The screed should be given what is known as a "drop hammer test" to assess strength and flexibility at different points. Only trained structural engineers heeding the British Standards BS8204 regulations are permitted to carry out such tests and sign off on the structural safety of the screeding.
