  • Word, my new hallway has got thin laminate flooring stuck down on top of wooden floorboards. The laminate peels back easily enough but underneath there's a layer of gritty, grey cement-like stuff. What could it be? Screed? I need to know so I can choose the right method of removal.

    Was hoping to be able to heat or chemically strip the boards but it looks like grinding/sanding might be in order.

  • Most likely something like ardex on a self levelling screed.

    If it is I would be amazed if you could get it up without fucking the floorboards. Sorry to be pessimistic but this stuff is meant to be difficult to remove.
