Fast drying screed

For projects working to a tight programme

Construction deadlines sometimes call for a floor solution that lets following trades progress more quickly. Fast-drying screed products are designed for projects where programme time matters.

They can be useful for:

  • Renovations
  • Commercial refurbishments
  • New developments
  • Extensions
  • Retail properties
  • Tight completion programmes

Drying and curing times vary between products, depths and site conditions, so the manufacturer's specification should always be followed before applying the final floor covering. Contact us to discuss whether a fast-drying screed is right for your project.

Frequently asked

What information do you need for a quote?

It helps to have the project address, approximate floor area in square metres, required screed depth, floor construction, underfloor heating details and your preferred installation date.

How long does floor screed take to dry?

Drying time varies with the screed product, the depth, temperature, ventilation, moisture conditions and the site environment. Always follow the relevant product specification before installing the final floor covering.

What floor finishes can be installed over screed?

Depending on the screed system and preparation, finished floors may include tiles, timber, laminate, carpet, vinyl and other flooring systems. The screed must reach the appropriate condition and moisture level before the final covering goes down.

How thick does floor screed need to be?

Required thickness varies with the screed product and floor construction. Bonded, unbonded, floating and underfloor-heating floors all have different requirements.
