What is the screed and how to choose the right one?

The screed is an intermediate layer between the subfloor and the floor, an element with a thickness that is generally between 3 and 10 cm. This is a sort of finishing to facilitate the installation of the covering, to obtain a smooth and imperfection-free surface on which to lay the floor taking advantage of 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. premixed products for the construction industry are particularly appreciated nowadays, as they are ready-to-use mixtures and just add water to make the final mix.

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 obtained in terms of thermo-acoustic insulation and load resistance.

How to apply the premixed screed

The premixed screed is rather simple to apply, just prepare the substrate adequately and calculate the thickness that the intermediate layer must have. Then you need to make the mixture by adding water to the mixture, using a mixing drill if necessary to obtain a perfect mixture without lumps in a convenient and quick way.

Next, all that remains is to distribute the screed over the entire surface involved, helping to spread the product evenly with a trowel or a special spatula. Finally, you must ensure that the screed is smooth and compact, waiting the time necessary for the mixture to dry before proceeding with laying the floor.
