What is screed and how to choose the right one?

The screed is one intermediate layer between the subfloor and the floor, an element with a thickness that is typically between between 3 and 10 cm. This is a sort of finishing to facilitate the laying of the covering, to obtain a smooth surface free from imperfections on which to lay the flooring using a optimal mechanical resistance.

Since the screed plays an essential role in the final result, it is important to choose the right product, carefully selecting the premixed screed to use. The products premixed for construction are particularly appreciated nowadays, as they are ready-to-use mixes and just add water to make the final dough.

When choosing the screed, it is necessary to consider the internal or external application environment, the presence of cement binders or anhydrite bases, any additives added to the compound and the Drying times. Furthermore, it is necessary to take into account the intended use, the type of flooring to be installed and the performance to be achieved in terms of thermal and acoustic insulation and load resistance.

How to apply pre-mixed screed

The premixed screed is quite simple to apply, just prepare the background properly and calculate the thickness that the intermediate layer will have. After that, you need to make the dough adding water to the mixture, using a spatula if necessary mixer drill to obtain a perfect, lump-free mixture quickly and easily.

Afterwards, all that remains is distribute the screed over the entire surface interested, helping to spread the product evenly with a trowel or a special spatula. Finally, you need to make sure the screed is smooth and compact, waiting for the necessary time for the compound to dry before proceeding with laying the floor.
