Durable, Waterproof Flooring Bases
Screeds form the smooth, level foundation essential for quality flooring installations. However, without proper waterproofing, screeds can allow moisture to penetrate, leading to tile failure, dampness, and structural damage beneath floor surfaces. Our waterproof screed systems ensure your floors stay dry, stable, and long-lasting.
Common Issues We Resolve
- Cracking and uneven screed surfaces

- Application of waterproof membranes underneath screeds

How long does screed waterproofing last?

Can waterproofing be applied over existing screeds?
Yes, if the screed is in good condition and properly prepared. Severely damaged screeds may need replacing first.
Will waterproofing raise floor height or affect finishes?
Most membranes are thin and won’t noticeably add height or impact flooring finishes like tiles or timber.
Is screed waterproofing suitable for homes and businesses?
Yes, it’s ideal for moisture-prone areas in both residential and commercial properties, tailored to usage levels.
How do I maintain waterproofed screeds?
Regularly check for cracks or moisture, keep areas clean, and repair any damage promptly. Professional inspections help too.
