    Hi all, thanks for the replies. The new screed floor has been down for about 6 weeks -it is an integral garage conversion -taking out the back wall of the garage and joining onto the existing hallway.It was a sharp sand cement mix. The tiles purchased are ceramic,although i have some porcelain ones for another room
