Bagged Liquid Screed Options

[Danny]

I have a 30m2 floor I need to screed. I really dont want to do it the the old fashioned way because I also cant be bothered to more 5 tonne of sand from teh front of my house the far end of my back garden....

What options do I have?

The phone call for that will be happening…

But whilst I’m on it, the M-tec M330 will pump approximately 5/6tonne per hour…

There must be a screeder local who would have a pump. The problem is 30 m is a small area. Some screeders lay a sand and cement screed and just top it with flow sceed to keep the cost down.

Then just set mixer up @ cheapest option

Get your concrete right then 2 bags of SLC

liquid flow screed 50mm is cost effective.

express screeds are in your area for that.

or if you increase the insulation thickness you can 30mm bagged screed .

i recently got a quote for a liquid screed 30m2 1700quid supply fit

i have called a few and nobody is interested....

I was on teh mixer today helping a mate screed a floor and it nearly broke me...

I am contemplating just throwing 6x2 accross the room and insulating between and be done with it but not sure if that is a good idea... whether it needs airflow or what.....

I order ready mix screed better then putting it through a mixer.

You can lay a floating chipboard floor straight on to the insulation mate. Worked on a few big houses that were done this way.

Mixing the screed is the easy bit. When I used to labour on myself I considered the mixing as having a rest between laying.

But does it not make that horrible sound when walking over it?

That horrible whiney noise will stop if you keep your mouth shut mate.

I agree with the old boy. Insulation and chipboard. Nice and warm . Under foot .clean to use . Doesn't matter if it rains.

Oi stop giving credit to the "old boy", I suggested it first.

I'm just putting 12mm laminate down in my dining room.im going over the old laminate to make it flush with the kitchen floor . .wickes £12 a metre . I've used it a lot ,so long as it's 12 mm I've never had a problem. I'm going to do the bedroom next straight over the carpet. It never ends does it.
