What is Liquid Screed?

Liquid screed provides the sub floor or foundation to your flooring finish. The quality of the final product is largely dependent upon the screed product you use. A poor screed foundation can cause time-consuming and costly problems down the line, such as damp, cracking, curling, and splitting.

Liquid screed is fast becoming the foundation of choice with contractors and developers because of its innovative design and ease of installation. It arrives ready-mixed and can be poured on site by a small team of screed specialists. It’s self-levelling, and blemishes are obliterated in the pouring process. Once poured, floor screed is normally able to take light foot traffic after 24/48 hours. It can be force dried after 7 days.

Our clients working with liquid screed in Cumbria tell us that the mix is of a very high quality, and the screed floor is extremely hard and durable.

Is Liquid Screed Better than Traditional Floor Screed?

Traditional screed was the default screeding material throughout the 20th century and it can still be found now. The mix of 4:1 sand to cement has to be achieved manually and the quality of the outcome is dependent on the expertise of the screeder.

Traditional floor screed has to be installed by hand, using a team appropriate to the size of the floor to be covered. At best a team of screeders will achieve 120 metres in day, whereas a liquid screed pour can cover 2000 metres in a few hours. Dry screed takes around 5 days to be dry enough for light foot traffic, whilst flow screed takes only 1-2 days.

Many of our contractor clients in Cumbria tell us that traditional screed can no longer compete with the advantages liquid screed brings to flooring applications and underfloor heating.

What are the Advantages of Using Liquid Screed?

Speed – it needs only a small team of screed specialists to facilitate a pour, and large surfaces can be covered in just a few hours.
Finish – it is guaranteed to achieve a perfect finish every time. The surface regularity easily achieves SR2 finish as described in BS8204.
Application – the gypsum mix gains strength by a process of crystallisation, resulting in an extremely durable product that can be poured in thinner layers. It requires no reinforcement, even when working on floating floors.
Uses – it’s second-to-none as a sub floor, or for a polished screed finish. When utilised in wet underfloor heating systems it enhances thermal conductivity and successfully eradicates air voids.
Health & Safety – liquid screed is non-combustible (tested to BS476, Part 4), and is protein free which ensures that harmful bacteria cannot b
