How to Self Level a Floor Using Screed

How to self level a floor using screed. In this brief video, John describes the methods and techniques we use to get an even, level surface using screed.
This screed floor was laid as part of our 'House Extension With Open Plan Kitchen and Games Room series: bit.ly/house_e...
The BIG Man explains:
🔵 How we use a laser level to project a constant horizontal line which acts as a reference point for the flor level.
🔵 How we use adjustable tripods to guage the required depth of screed.
🔵 Why a flow ring measurement is essential before and during the screed application.
🔵 How the screed is mixed to the correct consistency.
🔵 How the screed is actually laid.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching our video - truly appreciated 😀👌

I agree, this is a great leveling technique using the tripods. Also, to measure the flow of the leveling cement is fantastically simple. Thanks fella. I'm looking forward to watching the progress of this entire Reno.

[@HYPEBuilding]

Thanks once again for watching, John. Much appreciated. This renovation is actually complete (we just wanted to make sure we also did a video about the floor levelling). You can see the finished extension here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHPMaH-OYsaSd68 or watch the progress here: kzbin.info/aero/PLg1QJDbIZ5cLSTzQiN615WJJN9LXOS1nL 👍

I'm currently trying to get my suspended floor joists to something close to level (they are all over the place) and I'm really happy to see my technique of setting up the laser and measuring points around the room with my own tickling stick is the same as used by the pros! A laser level is an absolute godsend!!!

[@HYPEBuilding]

Thanks for watching and for your comments, Neil. We're hugely impressed that you have your own tickling stick - excellent work 🤣And yes, you're absolutely right, for work like this, a laser level is a must 👍

Where could you get thoes tri pods at?

[@HYPEBuilding]

Hi there. Thanks for watching our video and for your question. They're called screed spiders (amongst other things) and you can get them from a number of places - even Amazon when they're in stock. Here's an example of another place: oneillsupplies.com/product/zinc-plated-mild-steel-screed-levelling-tripod Hope that helps, mate 🙂👍
