Screeding contractor in Larnaca
Screeding contractor in Larnaca: request quotes from local professionals and compare prices, timings and terms.
A floor screed creates a flat, level base on the concrete slab before tiles, wood or other flooring go down. Self-levelling compounds are poured in a thin layer and give a very smooth surface, ideal under vinyl or laminate, or as a finished floor in commercial spaces. You will need this on a new build, in a renovation with uneven floors, or when new pipes or underfloor heating are laid.
Larnaca has plenty of new housing and regeneration work, and many properties are close to the sea. There, salt air and humidity call for proper waterproofing and corrosion-resistant materials. Ask professionals to state in their quote which materials they propose and why.

FAQ
How long does screed take to dry?
It depends on thickness, product and weather. Fast-drying products allow flooring sooner, while wood needs a moisture reading first.
Can self-levelling compound be the final floor?
Some products are designed as a finished floor, usually with a protective coating. Most, however, are a base for another floor covering.
Why does screed crack?
Usually from drying too fast in the heat, missing joints or the wrong mix. Fine hairline cracks are often not a problem under tiles.
