When fast dry screed makes sense
- Renovations where the family is moving back in soon
- Phased builds where the next trade is waiting on the floor
- Shops and commercial units that need to open on time
- Any job where weeks of drying time isn't an option
Same finish, less waiting
It's laid the same way as traditional sand and cement screed: pumped in, laser-levelled and finished flat. The difference is in the mix, which lets the floor dry far quicker than a standard screed.
It goes over insulation and underfloor heating like any other screed. Tell us your timeline at the site visit and we'll make sure the mix matches it.
