1/2" aint a screed. thats a skim!

Well, there's a source of confusion then. Screed in the flooring trade these
days refers to the self levelling variety, which is applied to a max depth
of half inch. Excellent stuff for bringing old concrete floors up to
standard quickly but too expensive for levelling.




Mm. Screed in the building trade is not. That's just a self levelling skim.

I'd say your floorers have hijacked the wrong word.
