The System

Screed straight
over pipes.

The Screed Buddy System allows concrete to be poured and screeded directly over pipe penetrations, eliminating the humps and uneven finishing commonly found around protruding pipes. The result is a flatter, more accurate slab that makes it easier for builders to stand frames and achieve a higher-quality finish.

Because the pipe is protected below the finished concrete surface, builders no longer need to measure, mark and cut bottom plates around pipe penetrations before standing frames. This saves time on site, simplifies frame installation, and reduces the risk of measurement errors and rework.

By protecting pipe penetrations during the pour and removing the need for time-consuming hand finishing, Screed Buddy improves productivity for both foundation contractors and builders.

Before & After

See the difference.

Construction site with concrete foundation, sand pit, and surveying markers alongside a tree-lined landscape

With Screed Buddy

A flat, consistent slab with pipes fully protected below the finished surface. Builders can stand frames straight off the floor with no measuring or cutting around penetrations.

Flat roof with white pipe posts and standing seam edges during construction or renovation work

Without Screed Buddy

Exposed pipes create humps and uneven levels. Builders have to measure, mark and cut every bottom plate — adding time, errors, and rework to every frame.
