Liquid Screed Installations
Liquid screeds are becoming more and more popular and it’s now the market leader in a lot of European countries. It’s premixed and the viscidity is always checked before the installation to make sure it meets the manufacturer’s standards for installation. The liquid flowing screed can be laid at a lower depth than traditional screeding which is the main reason why it has become a more popular option than using sand and cement. This also means that it sets quicker, meaning you can lay a floor finish sooner than on a traditional screed.
Liquid screed is very quick to install, taking only a day to install over 800m2 compared to just 150m2 for traditional screed in a day.

Liquid Screed Drying Times
With ideal drying conditions, which mean a warm and well-ventilated room, flowing screeds dry approximately at a rate of 1mm per day up to a 40mm thickness and 1/2mm per day for thicker floors. Please note that this is just an approximate and screed drying speed is hugely influenced by the individual site conditions. After the screed is dried the moisture must be tested to determine whether it is suitable to lay floor finishes on it.
