Why Screed Makes a Difference to Your Floor
Benefits of Quality Floor Screed
Choosing professional floor screed from Base Concrete brings real advantages to your building project. Here is how quality screed can help.
Creates a Perfectly Level Surface
Concrete bases are often slightly uneven or rough. Floor screed smooths out these bumps and dips, giving you a flat surface that makes laying your final flooring much easier and gives better results.
Works Brilliantly with Underfloor Heating
Screed is the ideal material for covering underfloor heating pipes. It holds heat well and spreads warmth evenly across the whole floor, making your heating system work more efficiently.
Provides a Strong, Long-Lasting Base
A good quality screed floor will last for many years without cracking or crumbling. It creates a solid foundation that supports heavy furniture and handles daily foot traffic without problems.
Suits Both Homes and Commercial Buildings
Whether you are screeding a kitchen floor or an entire office building, we can supply the right mix. Our screed works with all types of floor coverings, from carpet and laminate to tiles and vinyl.

The Perfect Partner for Warm Floors
Floor Screed for Underfloor Heating
More and more homes and businesses in Aylesbury are choosing underfloor heating. Floor screed is essential for making these systems work properly.
When screed is laid over heating pipes, it acts like a storage heater. The material absorbs warmth from the pipes and releases it slowly and evenly across the room. This means no cold spots and lower energy bills.
We supply screed mixes that are specially designed for underfloor heating. These mixes flow easily around the pipes without leaving air gaps, and they conduct heat efficiently. Our team can advise you on the right thickness and mix for your heating system.

What is floor screed and why do I need it?
Floor screed is a mixture of sand, cement and water that creates a smooth, level surface on top of your concrete base. You need it because concrete alone is usually too rough and uneven for laying floor coverings like tiles, carpet or wood. Screed gives you the flat, even surface that makes your final flooring look better and last longer.
How long does floor screed take to dry?
Traditional floor screed takes about one day per millimetre of thickness to dry properly under normal conditions. A typical 50mm screed floor would need around seven weeks to dry fully before you can lay floor coverings on top. However, drying times vary depending on the weather, heating and ventilation. We can supply faster-drying screed mixes if you need to speed up your project.
Can I walk on screed straight away?
You can usually walk carefully on screed after 24 to 48 hours, but you should avoid heavy foot traffic for at least five to seven days. The screed needs time to cure and harden properly. Walking on it too soon or dragging heavy items across it can cause damage that is difficult to repair.
How thick should floor screed be?
The thickness depends on how your screed is being laid. Bonded screed, which sticks directly to the concrete, can be as thin as 25mm to 40mm. Unbonded screed, which sits on a membrane, usually needs to be at least 50mm thick. Floating screed over insulation or underfloor heating typically needs to be 65mm to 75mm thick. Our team can advise you on the right thickness for your specific project.
Is floor screed suitable for underfloor heating?
Yes, floor screed is excellent for underfloor heating systems. The screed surrounds the heating pipes and helps spread warmth evenly across the whole floor. We supply screed mixes that are designed specifically for use with underfloor heating, giving you the best heat transfer and efficiency.
