What Is Concrete Screed?
Concrete screed is a high-quality, smooth finishing layer applied over subfloors to create a level surface for final flooring materials such as tiles, wood or carpet. Unlike ready-mix concrete, which contains coarse aggregates for structural strength, screed has a finer composition, making it ideal for precision levelling and a polished finish.
With a higher cement-to-aggregate ratio, concrete floor screed is ideal for:
- Encasing underfloor heating systems for even heat distribution
- Levelling floors in homes, offering a silk smooth base for final finishes
- Providing a level, durable surface for heavy-duty settings
- Strengthening and repairing old and uneven concrete floors

Concrete Screed for Underfloor Heating Systems
Sand and cement screed, also termed screed with fibre, is the ideal choice for underfloor heating systems. It’s a mix of sand, cement, water and polypropylene fibres, which reinforce the screed to reduce cracking and shrinkage.
The main reason this concrete screed is used for underfloor heating systems is thanks to more efficient heat transfer and distribution. The screed will fill every pocket of air and space around heating pipes, providing a superior and level finish that provides fast heat times for the underfloor heating system.
When installing your sand and cement fibre screed, you need to ensure you have the right thickness – screed for underfloor heating systems typically requires a minimum thickness of 60mm, and will generally take up to 50 days to fully cure.
For any assistance in choosing the right concrete screed for your underfloor heating system, our team is here to help.
