Hi does anyone know the minimum fall per meter a screed must have to let water run away ? Have a garage floor to tile builder has 30mm fall in 6 meters I think double that would about right but not sure of the exact spec you need . Thanks in advance
 
Typically 1:80 So for 6meters (which is quite a big garage) a fall of 75mm would be appropriate. However bear in mind that the concret should typically be a minimum of 100mm and at the entrance to the garage the recomendation is to thicken he concret to 300mm although I know of few people who do that bit.
