Bedworth extensions where pumped screed pays off
A wide, open floor is where pumping pays off. When the back wall of a 1950s or 1960s semi comes out and a kitchen, dining area and family room become one space, there is a lot of floor to cover in one go. Laid by hand, that is a long, heavy day with a joint pattern to plan. Pumped, it flows out under its own weight and levels itself in a few hours.
The finish is dense and flat. Getting it to SR1 or SR2 is routine, and that is the sort of surface big tiles and LVT want. It barely shrinks as it cures, which keeps the number of joints right down.
Thickness helps too. Over insulation in a home it can be as little as about 35mm deep, where a hand-laid floor would be about 65mm. When the extension floor has to meet the level of the existing kitchen, saving 30mm can mean thicker insulation underneath without raising the finished floor.
Liquid products are either calcium sulphate or cement based, and for a utility or any area that could get wet, the cement based type is used. Grades and specifications for the calcium sulphate type are on our Bedworth anhydrite page. Still deciding between pumped and hand-laid? Our comparison of the two methods lays out the differences.
Where a garage conversion is part of the same project, the converted garage floor can be laid at the same time, giving one continuous level.
Pump access on Bedworth's terraced streets
Only the hose comes inside; the truck and pump wait at the kerb. With 23% of Bedworth's homes terraced, that is not always as simple as reversing onto a drive. A mid-terrace house may have no off-road space, so the vehicles stand in the street and the hose goes through the front door, along the hall and into the back. A shared alley or rear access can shorten that run.
When you get in touch for a quote, mention any yellow lines, tight side passages and the way through the house to the back. The hose route is protected and the pour is planned around it.
In the room itself, every wall needs edge strip, the membrane must be taped along its joins and lapped up the walls, and the doorways need damming off. We check all of that before the pump starts.
Walkable is not dry. You can tread on it gently within a couple of days, yet most finishes have to wait until it meets the flooring maker's moisture limit, which takes around one day per millimetre over the first 40mm. Next door in Nuneaton, the same pump-and-pour process applies.
