While concrete and liquid screed are both popular choices for creating subfloors, they serve different purposes and come with distinct benefits. Knowing these differences can help you make an informed decision for your project, or find the best screed company to handle your needs.

The smoothness of a screed is typically measured using a straight edge or a laser level, which is placed at various points on the surface to check for any deviations from a perfectly flat and level plane. The measurements are then compared to industry standards.

The drying and curing time of floor screed can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of screed, thickness, humidity and temperature.

Yes, liquid screed can be used with underfloor heating systems. In fact, it is a popular choice for underfloor heating installations because of its excellent thermal conductivity and self-compacting properties.

The moisture content of screed can be measured using various methods, including: calcium carbide test, electronic moisture meter and oven-dry test.

Anhydrite screed, also known as calcium sulphate screed, is a type of flowing screed that is made from anhydrite (calcium sulphate) binder, sand, and water, along with other additives such as polymers, retarders and accelerators.

The cost of flow screed can vary depending on several factors, including the type of screed used, the depth required and the size of the area being screeded.
