Liquid Screed in Evesham

Because our liquid screed travels down a hose from the mixer into the room, an Evesham extension or a full ground floor goes down in one visit, flat and fine to walk on after 24 to 48 hours. It fits the town's newer housing well: 26% of Evesham's homes were built since 2000, and houses of that age are designed with insulated floors that suit a thin, self-levelling screed.

Pumped screed in Evesham's newer homes and flats

The case for liquid screed is strongest on large, open floors. A kitchen extension on a later estate home, a knocked-through living space or a new garden room can be poured in one operation. Left to flow, it settles flat by itself and gets to SR1 or SR2 without much effort, and with so little shrinkage it needs far fewer joints than a floor laid by hand.

Flats are 17% of Evesham's homes. Upper floors are where a pump really saves effort: the hose runs up the stairwell to the room, with no bags or barrows on the stairs and no mess carried through communal areas.

Depth is the other advantage. Floated over insulation in a house, a pumped floor can be as thin as about 35mm where a hand-laid one needs about 65mm, so it is easier to finish flush with existing doors and thresholds.

Pumped screed is made with either a calcium sulphate or a cement binder, and which you want rests on the room, the flooring and the chance of water reaching the floor. On a ground floor near the Avon that could flood, the cement based version is the one to use. For tiles, LVT or engineered wood, the flatter finish of a pumped floor often means less preparation before the covering goes down. The calcium sulphate kind has its own Evesham anhydrite screed page, and if you are torn between a pump and a hand-laid floor, our guide weighing pumped against hand-laid screed helps.

Getting the pump to an Evesham pour

The mixer and pump work from outside the house, ideally on a drive close to the door nearest the room. If the house has no drive, the pump could be parked on the street for the few hours we are pouring, so mention any parking limits, tight lanes or shared access when you ask us to quote.

The hose can run a long way inside, through a hall or up a staircase, but the route needs to be clear. Move furniture, bikes and boxes out of the way beforehand and the pour starts on time. Before pouring, the edge strip, membrane and taped joints are checked, and doorways are dammed to hold the screed in the right room. We can supply the whole base layer through our insulation and membrane service.

You can tread on it carefully within 48 hours, yet flooring has to wait until it has properly dried out. As a guide, budget one day per millimetre up to 40mm and longer for anything thicker. The same service is available about 12 miles away as liquid screed in Stratford-upon-Avon.

FAQs

Liquid Screed in Evesham: your questions

Can liquid screed go on a ground floor in a flood-prone part of Evesham?

Yes, but the type matters. A cement based liquid screed can be used where the floor might get wet, while a calcium sulphate screed should not. A good membrane beneath the screed is just as important. If the house has flooded before, tell us, so the build-up is planned around that risk.

Is liquid screed as strong as concrete?

They do different jobs. Concrete forms the structural slab, while liquid screed goes on top of that slab, or over insulation, as a flat, dense layer for the flooring to sit on. For homes and most offices it is more than strong enough, with grades specified by compressive and flexural strength to suit the use.

How many square metres of liquid screed can be poured in a day?

Liquid screed is designed to cover large areas in a day, which is one of its main advantages over hand-laid screed. A single extension or a whole ground floor is normally one visit. The real limits are access for the pump, the hose route and how ready each room is on the day.
