Working with a skilled and qualified flooring specialist will guarantee you use the right kind of screed for the room's intended usage and get the optimum lifespan out of the resulting flooring. Choosing the right screeding materials and the method of installation is crucial if you want to finish up with a durable and quality finish for your floor.

Make certain you get at least 2 or 3 estimates for your Verwood screeding project and also ask what standard of finish each quotation is for. The estimate may be based on what is known as the SR, or Surface Regularity calculation. SR2 and SR3 could be less expensive options, but the floor screeding finish may have deviations and errors, whilst SR1 guarantees a perfect finish. This could mean that you may have to correct any patches that might cause problems when laying your final flooring material.

British Standards BS8204 lays down the guidelines and regulations that all Verwood screeding contractors must follow, and if using specialist screeding solutions, (Flowcrete, Cemfloor, Gypsol etc), they should be accredited by the manufacturers as being trained and skilled in their use.

Verwood commercial screeders might be involved in floor screeding in hospitals, shopping centres, warehouses, boutiques, factories and schools.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - This is good for normal domestic use and comprises a mixture of sand and cement. The ratios involved are five parts sand to one part cement. Once laid this 5:1 ratio dries at a rate of one millimetre each day.

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

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The preferred choice by professional screeders for use with underfloor heating systems. This is because of the increased durability and protection against thermal cracking and shrinkage provided by the special fibres within the screed. It has a drying rate of 1mm per day.

Advanced Drying and Fast Drying Screeds - As the name suggest, these screeds dry at a quicker rate and allow you to use the floor area much faster. Most of the fast drying screeds are of the fibre reinforced kind and are ideal for a whole host of flooring projects where the faster drying rate of 3-7mm/day is a welcome advantage.

Liquid or Self-Levelling Screeds - Used to produce the highest quality of finish, especially where SR1 levels are essential, by a cement and latex compound. It is largely used to provide a high quality floor over the top of a damaged or poor quality substrate and results in a finish onto which all types of flooring materials can be laid. These can be as little as 1mm in depth, and thanks to the latex polymers, will still provide high strength.

Polymer Screeds - An extremely high strength solution where a reduced thickness is needed. On account of their different chemical compositions, these screeds have varying drying times which you can verify by viewing manufacturer's own product guidelines.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

Good preparation is essential for a top quality screed surface that will be hard wearing and durable. It is important that all contaminants such as paint, debris, oil or grease is eradicated from the floor before laying any screed, since these can affect the bonding process that a good quality floor screed needs.

If cleansing products were used it's vital to remove any residues of soap or detergent, and allow the surface to dry naturally. It is necessary to fix any cracks or crevices in the base to avoid them being visible and "travelling" upwards into your freshly screeded floor. An on-site survey will allow your Verwood screeding company to pinpoint this preparation work and complete it before starting to apply the screed layer.

Before the screeding can be laid a damp proof membrane (DPM) will have to be installed to shield the final flooring and screed from moisture damage. Different thicknesses of special polythene might be used as a DPM and also serve as a barrier for the screed and any insulation material.

A further airtight barrier could be required if your home or business premises is in an area that is regarded as prone to radon. If radon is present in severe doses then a complete ventilation and extraction system might be needed under the screed which will extract any gases that could seep in from the ground.

As soon as these steps have been taken the screeders will apply a sealer or primer to the prepared base surface. A primer assists in the screed bonding process to the base and different varieties exist depending on which type of screed is being applied. These products require professional technicians to apply them in the appropriate proportions by using airless sprays and other custom-made equipment.

Under floor heating can now be laid out, installed and checked before screeding is poured. The cables and heating pipes are firmly mounted on insulation panels to stop any movement and ensure that they are positioned correctly. Warmth is evenly spread across the floor in a properly installed underfloor heating system, and with it being an effective choice of heating, it's a good choice for most Verwood renovation projects.

Obviously, if you're not fitting underfloor heating, you simply skip this stage and get on with applying the screeding. The specific requirements of the room will dictate the form of screeding that's used. For advanced and quick drying screeds there will be at least a twenty four hour delay before it is able to be walked on, and a further Three days minimum before you can install any flooring materials. If you're laying heavy duty or standard screeds the drying time is increased and you must observe the manufacturer's guidelines in order to get the best possible finish to your floor.

You can test the SR standard of the finished screeding once it is solidified enough to walk on. The standard SR test involves the use of a two metre straight edge to check for any variations in the screed surface.

  • SR1 - Over the entire area, if there aren't any deviations greater than three millimetres from the straight-edge, then you have a top quality SR1 specification surface.
  • SR2 - If the screeded floor deviates from the straight edge by 5 millimetres or less it is considered SR2 level and is the standard for industrial and commercial floors.
  • SR3 - For other floors where the finish is relatively immaterial the SR3 is the specification and has a maximum deviation measurement of ten millimetres or less.

There might also be a requirement for a qualified structural engineer to carry out a soundness test. This test will ascertain the overall strength of the screeding and its viability for the proposed use. This should include what is known as a drop hammer test which assesses various aspects of the strength and flexibility of the screed. Any screeding that has load bearing requirements must be sanctioned by a fully qualified structural engineer applying the British Standards BS8204 regulations.
