Floor Screeding Rhyl

Floor Screeding Rhyl Wales (LL18): If you are hoping to install under floor heating, are renovating a property or cellar or have a damaged or uneven floor in your Rhyl home, it is a good time to think about bringing in a professional floor screeder. Floor screeding provides a smooth finish to a rough sub-base floor, and enables you to lay a suitable flooring material, (tiles, carpets, boards etc) over it. If you would like your floors to last a long time then floor screeding is one of the most important factors in any renovation or building task.

FLOOR SCREEDING CONTRACTORS RHYL

Whatever shape or size of room or area you're remodeling, a screeding contractor in Rhyl will be able to provide you with the expertise and correct working practices to generate the perfect base for your floors. They'll assess the project and figure out the correct sort of screed you require and how best to apply it.

Your screeding specialist will also notify you if a structural engineer is needed for your project, to evaluate load bearing, flex strength and point loadings that your screed floor may require to conform with current building regulations and British Standards.

The skills and training that a certified screeding contractor brings to your project should guarantee a successful end result and help in prolonging the life of your flooring. A correct mixture of screed and the way it is laid is also critical to guarantee the final quality of your floor.

Before picking out a screeding contractor from those operating in the Rhyl area, ask to what standard of finish they're basing their quote, and also make sure that you get two or three price quotes. The price quote could be based on what's known as the SR, or Surface Regularity number. SR1 is the best level, and while SR2 and SR3 might be cheaper at first glance, they don't guarantee a perfectly even or flat surface. This could mean that you may need to fix any patches that might cause issues when laying your final flooring material.

British Standards BS8204 sets down the regulations and guidelines that all Rhyl screeding installers are required to follow, and if using specialist screeding solutions, (Gypsol, Flowcrete, Cemfloor etc), they should be approved by the manufacturers as being skilled and trained in their use. The testing and training of a screeding company by a manufacturer is highlighted through the accreditation scheme, and gives assurances of reliability and safe working practices on any project involving their materials.

TYPES OF SCREED

Standard Screeds - Widely used in residential projects where the combination of sand and cement is ideal for basic footfall usage. 5 parts sand to 1 part cement is the normal mixture for standard flooring screeds. This 5 to 1 ratio standard flooring screed will set hard at a rate of 1mm per day after applying.

Fast Drying and Advanced Drying Screeds - If you have to use the area as quickly as possible a fast drying screed might be a good choice. These are usually a fibre reinforced kind of screed that dries out at a rate of between 3-7mm per day and are used in time-sensitive projects.

Polymer Screeds - A high strength flooring solution where a reduced thickness is necessary. Manufacturer's guidelines for curing times differ across the product ranges.

Industrial and Heavy Duty Screed - Where traffic levels are expected to be high or heavy loading of the floor is needed, heavy duty screeds offer maximum durability and strength.

Self-Levelling or Liquid Screeds - Used to produce the highest quality of finish, especially where SR1 levels are needed, by a latex and cement mixture. This self-levelling compound provides a smooth and level surface over a rough substrate or damaged floor to enable all kinds of flooring materials to be laid. Even with a depth of only one millimetre, the latex polymers within the mixture provide a high strength surface for a variety of uses.

Fibre Reinforced Screed - The preferred choice by professional installers for use in combination with under floor heating systems. The greater strength and flexibility offered by the special fibres in the screed help protect the flooring from shrinkage and cracking due to heat. It has a setting rate of one millimetre per day.

SCREEDING PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION

To enable the screeding to be of a good quality finish which is hard wearing and durable, time should be spent on fully preparing the area before any screeding material is laid. It's crucial that any contaminants such as grease, debris, paint or oil is eliminated from the floor surface before laying any screed, as these can affect the bonding capability that a quality floor screed requires.

If any products are used during this stage it is vital to make certain that no residues of soaps or other cleaning products are left on the floor surface and it is permitted to dry out naturally. If screeding over a stone or cement floor all cracks should be repaired to prevent them from "travelling" through a screed layer and producing deviations on the final surface. A professional Rhyl screeding installer will address these aspects during a on-site survey and ensure all preparations are finished before moving on to the next stages of the screeding process.

Before the screeding can be poured a DPM (damp proof membrane) must be put down to shield the screed and final flooring from moisture damage. The DPM is made from thick polythene sheet and various layers might be used to act as a moisture barrier and air insulating layer for the screed.

A supplementary air-tight barrier might be required if your home or business premises is in an area which is known to be susceptible to radon. This can be just a simple airtight membrane, or in more serious cases a ventilation and extraction system is installed beneath the screed to take away any influx of air and gas from the ground.

As soon as these stages have been completed the screeding company will apply a sealer or primer to the prepared base surface. Sealers and primers help the bonding process and are specialist applications specifically designed for the type of screed being applied. Equipment such as airless sprays are used to apply a primer or sealant, which should be done by experienced screeding companies in Rhyl following the manufacturer's guidelines and safety advice.

Before any screed is poured, any underfloor heating will now be laid out. The cables and heating pipes are firmly mounted on insulation panels to stop any movement and make certain that they are positioned correctly. When professionally installed an underfloor heating system is an excellent way to warm up a room and high quality screeding will retain its heat, producing an even heat right across the floor surface.

Naturally, if you're not installing underfloor heating, you simply ignore this step and get on with applying the screeding. Your proposed use of the room will assist your screeding specialist on what sort of floor screed is best for your requirements. After the application of the screed there will be a minimum 24 hours (for quick drying screeds) before you are able to walk upon the surface, and a 72 hours minimum setting period for the laying of any floor coverings. Manufacturer's drying instructions for standard and heavy duty screeds should be followed so as to achieve a quality finish and provide an even and stable surface.

The SR level of your screed can be checked once it's hardened sufficiently to be stepped onto. Through the use of a 2 mtr straight-edge the floor surface is checked for any ridges, dips and deviations in the surface of the screed.

• SR1 - SR1 is the best level and permits just 3mm of deviation from the straight-edge.

• SR2 - The normal standard flooring in industrial and commercial builds is classed as SR2 and has a maximum possible deviation of five millimetres across the whole floor surface.

• SR3 - SR3 is utility standard where a perfect finish is not required. This level allows for a maximium deviation depth of 10mm.

If your screed has been laid with particular load bearing requirements in mind then a structural engineer will be necessary to conduct tests. This assessment will determine the strength of the screed and the viability for its intended use. This will include what is known as a drop hammer test which records specific data on the strength and flexibility of the screed. Only certified structural engineers following the BS8204 guidelines are allowed to carry out such testing and sign off on the structural integrity of screed flooring.
