The groundwork that decides the finish
Good floor preparation is an important part of achieving a quality screed installation. Depending on the floor specification, preparation may include:
- Insulation
- Membranes
- Perimeter edging
- Checking levels
- Preparing areas around underfloor heating systems
If you are unsure whether your floor is ready for screeding, contact our team before installation and we can talk through the preparation requirements with you. It is a short conversation that saves a lot of trouble on the day.

What is floor screed?
Floor screed is a layer of material installed over a prepared floor structure to create a smooth and level surface for the final floor covering. It can be laid over concrete, insulation, membranes or underfloor heating pipework, depending on the design of the floor.
What information do you need for a quote?
It helps to have the project address, approximate floor area in square metres, required screed depth, floor construction, underfloor heating details and your preferred installation date.
How thick does floor screed need to be?
Required thickness varies with the screed product and floor construction. Bonded, unbonded, floating and underfloor-heating floors all have different requirements.
Do I need to prepare the floor before you arrive?
The floor generally needs to be clean and correctly prepared for the chosen screeding system. If you are unsure, speak to us before your screeding date and we will talk it through — see floor preparation.
