Fibre Reinforced Screed
Fibre reinforced sand and cement floor screed incorporates polypropylene fibres to minimise shrinkage and cracking. This solution offers improved flexural strength and faster drying times, making it ideal for both domestic and commercial applications. Suitable for use with underfloor heating systems, it provides a durable, crack-resistant surface that meets BS EN 13813 standards while allowing light foot traffic within 48 hours.
Higher Strength Screed
Higher strength sand and cement floor screeds achieve compressive strengths exceeding 30Nmm, designed for high-traffic environments. These screeds reduce drying shrinkage through low water-to-cement ratios and incorporate additives for rapid strength development. Ideal for commercial properties, they provide a stable base for final floor finishes while maintaining thermal insulation properties and conforming to BS EN 13813 requirements.
Fast Drying Screed
Fast drying sand and cement floor screed contains additives that accelerate curing times, enabling floor coverings to be installed sooner. Suitable for time-sensitive projects, this solution achieves usability within 8-12 hours and full site traffic readiness in 5 days. It offers reduced drying shrinkage and enhanced strength while maintaining compatibility with underfloor heating systems and various final flooring materials.
Questions
What is the purpose of floor screeding?
Floor screeding creates a smooth, level surface over concrete or insulation bases, preparing floors for final finishes while improving energy efficiency through even heat distribution.
How long does floor screed take to dry?
Drying times vary: light foot traffic resumes in 24-48 hours, full site traffic in 5-7 days, with complete curing achieved after 28 days for optimal strength.
What types of floor screeding does JCW provide?
We supply fibre reinforced, higher strength, and fast drying sand and cement screeds, each tailored to specific project requirements and performance criteria.
Can I screed a floor myself?
While possible, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper mixing ratios, surface preparation, and application techniques for durable, level results.
How should I prepare my floor for screeding?
Remove all dirt, dust, and debris from the subfloor using a dustpan or vacuum to ensure proper adhesion and prevent uneven finishes before professional application.
