Screeding and floor screeding · Kent

Screeding in Ashford, Kent

K & B Screeding lays floor screed across Ashford, from new build plots on the growing edges of town to extensions and relaid floors in its older districts, plus commercial units. Ashford has grown fast: 31% of its homes were built since 2000, so a large share of its floors are in modern insulated homes. Ashford lies about 71 miles from our Slough base. Whatever the job, the price is fixed on paper first.

Which screed fits which part of Ashford

For floors, Ashford is really two kinds of town. The older areas include Willesborough, Kennington and South Ashford. The newer estates include Finberry, Repton Park on former barracks land, and Chilmington Green on the south-west edge, where 5,750 homes were approved in 2016.

On those new build schemes, liquid or anhydrite screed is laid over underfloor heating pipes plot by plot. A pumped liquid screed for Ashford homes suits that pattern, and when the specification names a calcium sulphate grade, the anhydrite flow screed page explains the testing and sanding it brings.

In Willesborough and South Ashford the work is different. Homeowners there are more likely to be extending a semi or relaying a cracked sand and cement floor. An extension with heating pipes is covered on our page for underfloor heating screed in Ashford. A failed floor that is dug out and rebuilt usually takes a hand-laid sand and cement screed, which copes with small rooms and changes in level.

Semis make up 33% of Ashford's homes, and extending one usually means matching a new floor to the old level. If an Ashford floor is solid and only out of true, a skim of levelling compound can be enough.

Postcodes here include TN23, TN24 and TN25, and the area also takes in Bybrook, Singleton, Godinton, Park Farm, Stanhope, Kennington Lees and Goat Lees.

Commercial floors on Ashford's business parks

Eureka Science and Business Park, Orbital Park and Waterbrook Park are Ashford's main employment areas, and the Designer Outlet has been expanded. Ashford International Studios is converting part of the former railway works. Warehouse, studio and retail floors like these need screeds laid to accurate levels, often in a high strength or fibre reinforced mix so the surface stands up to trolleys, racking and heavy traffic.

A unit changing hands is the usual moment for floor work: old coverings come up, a damaged screed needs repair, or a new finish demands a flatter base. New wearing screeds and bigger floor areas come under our screeding for commercial units. Power floated structural slabs, resin and polished concrete are outside what we do, so a fit-out on Orbital Park or Waterbrook Park that needs any of those will want a specialist for that part.

On any build, domestic or commercial, the screed sits between other trades. The building needs to be weathertight and plastered, heating pipes tested, and the floor given time to dry before the flooring contractor arrives. Tell us about pump access, parking and phasing when you ask for a price, and the pour can be planned around the rest of the programme.

FAQs

Screeding in Ashford: your questions

Who can screed a new build plot in Ashford?

K & B Screeding lays liquid and calcium sulphate flow screeds over insulation and underfloor heating on new build plots, as well as traditional screeds for extensions and renovations. We can also put in the layers below the screed: insulation, a membrane and edge strip. Send the plot drawings or floor areas, the specified grade and the programme, and we will return a fixed written price within 24 hours.

How much does screeding a floor in Ashford cost per m²?

As a starting point, sand and cement is £18 to £25 per m² and liquid screed £24 to £31 per m², going by published 2026 UK figures. Depth, area, access and whether insulation or membranes are included all move the final figure. Every job gets an itemised, fixed price agreed before work starts.

What work is done before a screed is poured on an Ashford build?

On a new Ashford house, the plot should be closed in against the weather, glazed, with external doors hung and the plastering finished. Next the insulation is laid, membrane goes over it, edge strip is fixed to the walls, and any heating circuit has to be full and pressure tested. Doorways are dammed for a pumped screed. We check each item on the day before any material goes in.
