15+ Years Experience
Specialist Cementitious Floor Screeding
We are a leading screed installation company based in the UK.
Our work in screed fitting has taken us across the nation, where we can also offer maintenance of floor screeds along with fixtures in Heywood, allowing us to work with all requirements. We focus on traditional screeds, such as sand and cement screeds, due to their durability.
Screeds like this are installed as a subfloor, creating a stable and level foundation for any additional construction work to continue on top. A floor screed essentially acts as an under layer of concrete floor, protecting the whole floor once it has been installed with its stability.
We work to install industrial floors and screed layers across the UK, with a particular focus on traditional screed methods.

There are many types of cement screeds available in the UK. A floor screed is an essential element in the construction of properties as it offers a level foundation for all forms of floor coverings.
We offer the following types of cementitious screeds:
To create a concrete subfloor in large areas, poured concrete floor screeds are installed.
This is a traditional screed method where concrete is poured into the space and left to set to create the floor. As there is a long drying time for cement-based screeds like this, we have reduced drying times through force-dried methods such as applying heat to ensure that the surface sets at a time that is suitable for our clients.
Additional work may be needed as the concrete floor does not always lay level. We can do additional work after the screed layer is installed to ensure that it is level and smooth.
The benefits of this material include its durability due to its thickness and the fact this screed can be used for external settings. It can be used on walls and floors as a sub-surface.
This is a highly versatile screed material due to the fact it is installed as concrete tiles or boards, which allows for a fast setting process. As this is a screed board, it can be installed virtually anywhere, including walls or floor surfaces.
It can provide a smooth finish and offers high levels of insulation, making it ideal for underfloor heating systems. Due to its insulation, this kind of screed is a suitable damp-proof membrane and is a hard-wearing screed that usually has a minimum thickness. The tiles are installed to be self-levelling, making them suitable for any structural topping and even underfloor heating.
Laying this subfloor layer is easy, and once laid, the concrete subfloor can be used for all settings.
Unlike the other two forms of screed, this is not made from cement or concrete but is instead made to the same effect. It is instead a porcelain or calcium sulphate screed that is cheaper than a real concrete screed but is just as effective.
The screed board can be laid in a range of settings and can be directly bonded to the foundation or upper surface. The tiles are self-compacting and have a short drying time in all drying conditions.
It offers good levels of abrasion resistance and can withstand heavy foot traffic, making it ideal for industrial settings.
All of these screeds make a great sub-surface for laying floors, such as timber, tile, and even cement-based materials. Speak to the team today to learn more.
The average cost to get cement floor screeds laid on your site in the UK can start at £100 per square metre.
There are a range of factors that can influence the cost of having this hard-wearing screed laid, such as:

There are many benefits to cement screed, which is why this is a great sub-layer for all forms of flooring or surfacing.
The fact this floor screed is cementitious means it is very durable and, therefore, suitable for all floors to be laid on top in Heywood, whether this is timber, epoxy resin, or even high-strength concrete topping.
Concrete can also protect against moisture to keep the structural integrity solid and has great insulation, making it suitable for underfloor heating or hot water pipes to be laid on top. Excess water can evaporate from this screed to prevent long-term issues.
Based on the thickness of the screed, it can be quick to dry and easy to level. We will sand the screed to create a smooth level, as per a spirit level. These screeds can also be directly bonded to the foundation without an additional bonding agent for a quicker fitting process.
While an unbonded screed is perfectly safe, it is better to opt for a bonded screed, and concrete can be used with all forms of bonding agent, like styrene butadiene rubber.
Edging foam may also be used to reduce the sharp sand edges and make a level floor screed.
Concrete floor screed is incredibly versatile and durable, making it suitable for a range of applications.
Cementitious screeds are a layer of surfacing screed that is made primarily of cement, but there are other components to it, such as sand.
Sand and cement are combined to make a subfloor screed that is durable and long-lasting, making it an excellent foundation for a range of applications in Heywood.
The traditional ratio for this screed is 1:4 cement to sand, but this can be adjusted for different finishes. For example, to make a finer screed with a lower thickness, sharp sand can be used, whereas for a more hard-wearing screed, a coarse aggregate is used.
While cement screed is always durable, it is important to note that an unbonded screed is at more risk of damage due to micro-cracks in the floor. This is why we always use bonded screeds for the floor to protect the top half of the surface.
A bonded screed is bonded to the floor using a specific agent and offers more benefits than an unbonded screed due to its stability. Using a standard bonded screed, it can take around an hour for the whole floor to be laid and set, based on the thickness of the screed and where it is laid.
While a chipping hammer can be used on a bonded screed to remove excess water or air bubbles in the surface, this is not suitable with an unbonded screed.
This kind of screed offers a great deal of benefits, which is why we can lay it anywhere. The fact it is durable and resistant to moisture and heavy weights makes it ideal to use as a sublayer for underfloor heating in Heywood, as well as in industrial settings.
We can lay all forms of cement floor screed in Heywood to suit your requirements, such as:
This is done by dragging a brush over the top half of the cement before it dries completely to leave brush marks.
This is a popular method for concrete screed surfaces as it can leave a polished appearance. After we lay the concrete, a trowel is used to smooth out any cracks or air bubbles.
This leaves the natural appearance of the concrete on the surface and is a modern appearance for outdoor areas, in particular.
This is a sleek finish where the concrete is polished to make it shiny. Additional treatment may be required to prevent slips and to make it water-resistant.
To change the colour of the concrete, stains, and paints can be used.
These finishes can be provided for additional benefits, such as levelling screed, or for aesthetic purposes. Contact the Heywood team today to learn more.
Here are just some of the many colours that you can have cement screed installed in:
Cementitious screed, when installed correctly, can last anything from 20 years to a lifetime, based on the setting and maintenance.
The cementitious screed can be cleaned the same way as any other surface, as it is highly durable and can withstand chemicals.
Polished levelling screed does not need to be slippery as it can be treated with a coating to make it moisture and slip resistant, despite the shiny appearance.
