Screed is a mix of cement and water with only a small amount of aggregates included. This mix is smooth and usually used as a finishing layer on a concrete base. It can be used on internal floors or as a means to level the final carpet covering, tiles, linoleum, stone, wood, or concrete floor, and so on. The reason why this type of finish is used on concrete floors is because of the great aesthetics and the added durability. This bump-free finish will help protect the concrete floor and make them long-lasting. In addition, screed is often used to cover underfloor heating systems, thermal or acoustic insulation.
