Renewing floor Concrete
Hi all .
ive just started ripping out my extension 100%refit
im taking up the old ceramic tiles,the problem im having is ,its tking up the screed with it ,screed is hollow all over .
the screed is approx 25mm to 15mm in places .i cannot lay a proper screed 50mm as it will throw out all the worktop lines /window cill
any ideas how to sort this ?? would be too much for self leveller
i was thinking a grano mix 25mm thick ???
thanksfor any replies

Re: Renewing floor Concrete
You could go with a flowing gypsum screed. They can be laid bonded at just 25mm or unbonded i.e. on a polythene membrane at 30mm. Much cheaper than a levelling compound.

Re: Renewing floor Concrete
Could use sbr in a slurry on the existing floor then add some sbr to the new screed, would allow you to lay thinner than normal..
Sand would have to be a good quality though
