Screeding and levelling near Ballycullane

Screeding and levelling: what the job involves

Laying a sand-cement or flowing (anhydrite) screed over insulation or underfloor heating pipes, or a self-levelling compound over an existing floor, so the finished floor goes down flat. Screed is laid in a day but has to dry for weeks before most floors can go on it.

How long it takes: Laid in a day; drying takes weeks, roughly a day per millimetre for the first 40 mm of traditional screed, so a typical screed is not ready for wood or vinyl for well over a month without forced drying.

What affects the price

Area and depth
Traditional sand-cement, flowing screed or a thin levelling compound
Underfloor heating pipes and insulation below
Access for a screed pump or barrows
Laitance removal, moisture testing and force-drying
VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.
