Screed Floor Sanding - Liquid Screed Floor Sanding Ltd

Screeding is basically the application of a mixture of cement and graded aggregates on the concrete floor base. Screeds are of various types and have to be chosen according to the application and need. After the screed is applied, no matter whether it is a concrete screed or liquid screed, it should dry and settle completely before doing any further process on it. After the screed is spread on the floor and after it is settled and dry, floor sanding is required to be done before installing any finishing floor above it. Floor sanding is done so as to remove any laitance having loose surface and various surfaces of the floor seal with each other effectively. No matter what flooring is to be applied later, but floor sanding above the screed floor is recommended for all. Liquid Screed Floor Sanding Limited is a company which provides floor sanding services.

The process of sanding is done by using specialized machines and is best done by professional service providers. Before commencement of this process, firstly, the entire floor is cleaned to remove any sort of nails or other sharp materials. These sharp materials can damage the sanding machine. Usually drum sanders and large belt sanders using coarse grit papers are used for the first cut in the initial stages. Apart from the broad main floor, the narrow regions like corners, edges and stairs remain. The process of sanding is done for them using edger sander and coarse grit papers of similar grit used initially. It is in this stage that holes are filled or boards are cut. A second cut is then carried on using the sand papers having double grit than used previously. After this is done, a finishing sander or a finishing machine is used to give the final touch. Finally, the sanded floor is sprayed with sealants. Sealant can be chosen depending on the flooring to be used afterwards.

Sanding above the screed floor improves the durability of the floor and avoids further troubles in the process of flooring. Any type of floorings like tiles, flags, carpet, vinyl, micro cement, and hardwood can be used after successful completion of screeding and sanding.
