Hi I've laid standard concrete slab inside and ready to lay screed on top (first time screeding though) need a good finish for real wood flooring don't wanna mess it up just a few quick q's plz
Roughly how wide should the perimeter screeding be?
Do you wait for the perimeter screeding to dry first (and how long does that take) and remove the battens then infill?
If you do leave the battens in and infill then do you remove them after finishing the rest then fill the gaps?
How long does the screed take to dry (I mean walking on dry not totally)
Oh and do you plastic float it like external render (that would be tough though since you can't rest on the wet screed you've laid while waiting for the previous to go off for an hour or so)
Any help greatly appreciated please
