Hi, new to this site. I am renovating on older property and have installed a solid floor in the old part of house and new extension (concrete base + 150-200mm celotex + UFH + screed). I'm worried about the screed as it has cracked near the door. Apparently this is normal when a large door is installed but I measured the cracked part and it is only 30mm. Difficult to guage the depth of the rest of the floor (although measured less than 50mm in another part) but I'm worried....should I be? Also the screed appears to have large aggregates in it. Is this normal?

Hello, Hoping some one may be able to offer advice. My living room floor has started to develop dips under the carpet. We have pulled up the carpet and found cracked dips in the screed. Not sure why this has happened? It was a small area to start of with but now more areas have come up in various places. There are no cracks on walls. We don't believe its subsidence. The dips are central to the floor. Could this be rectified by digging up the current screed in the complete living floor space and laying new screed? Or should we dig up the areas that are dipped and rectify those with new screed? Appreciate any advice!
