Self Levelling Screed
A smooth, level subfloor is essential for a high-quality flooring installation.
At A Welbourne Flooring, we provide professional self levelling screed services for both domestic and commercial properties across Cambridgeshire and West Norfolk.
Whether you’re preparing a floor for LVT, vinyl, laminate or commercial flooring, self levelling screed ensures the surface is flat, stable and ready for installation.
What Is Self Levelling Screed?
Self levelling screed is a cement-based compound designed to correct uneven, damaged or imperfect subfloors.
Once applied, it flows across the surface to create a smooth, level finish that is suitable for new flooring.
It is commonly used on:
- Surfaces where precision is required for modern flooring
- Concrete subfloors
- Floors with minor cracks or dips
When Is Self Levelling Screed Required?
Self levelling screed is often needed when:
- The existing floor is uneven or out of level
- Preparing a subfloor for LVT or vinyl flooring
- Old tiles or flooring have been removed
- Floors need strengthening before commercial installations
- A clean, smooth finish is required for long-lasting results
- Proper floor preparation helps prevent future issues such as movement, lifting or premature wear.
