Why choose liquid screed over traditional sand and cement?

Why choose liquid screed over traditional sand and cement?

Liquid screed offers several significant advantages:

  • Speed of Application: Poured and finished significantly faster than traditional screeds.

  • Superior Finish: Achieves high surface precision, flatness, and smoothness.

  • Thinner Depths: Can be laid at lower thicknesses without compromising strength.

  • Zero Air Voids: Completely encapsulates underfloor heating pipes for maximum heat transference.

  • Reduced Risk of Shrinkage: Minimal cracking and movement compared to standard mortar mixes.

What is liquid floor screed and how does it work?

Liquid floor screed (also known as flow screed or liquid screed) is a pumpable flooring compound designed to create a smooth, perfectly level base for final floor coverings. Unlike traditional semi-dry sand and cement, liquid screed flows quickly around obstacles and pipework to eliminate air pockets, delivering superior flatness and finish.
