Pumped floors for Haslemere extensions and newer homes
Liquid screed is designed for open floors. A single pour can cover a whole extension or ground floor in a day, with the screed settling to a flat, dense surface. That suits Haslemere's semis, which make up 23% of homes here, when a rear extension opens up into a new kitchen or living space. It suits larger detached ground floors for the same reason.
Newer homes are the other obvious fit. Just 15% of Haslemere homes were built since 2000, and a new or replacement floor over insulation in one of them is a natural candidate for a floating liquid screed.
Flatness is where liquid screed pays off. Pumped floors reach SR1 or SR2 without strain, so under a 2m straightedge the gap stays within 3mm or 5mm. Large tiles, LVT and engineered boards all need that kind of base. It also shrinks so little that joints are few and far between compared with a hand-laid floor.
Depth follows the build-up. In a house, floating on insulation, the screed starts at about 35mm. Run heating pipes beneath it and those pipes need a minimum of 25mm on top, roughly 45 to 50mm altogether. Expect around a day of drying for each millimetre through the first 40mm, and slower progress after that.
For a bathroom laid to a fall, or a garage slab being raised, traditional sand and cement is usually better. Which one suits your room is laid out in our liquid versus hand-laid screed guide.
Reaching the room from Haslemere lanes and drives
Every pumped pour starts with where the pump can stand. The mixer and pump need a space near the building, and the hose runs from there to the room. Most detached Haslemere houses with a driveway leave plenty of room for it.
Narrow lanes, steep drives and restricted parking need more planning. If the room is at the back of a house with no side access, the hose may run through the building, so floor protection goes down first. Tell us about the route, any gradient and where a lorry can stop when you ask for a price.
Upper floors and flats are workable. The hose can climb a stairwell or pass through a window, and the screed levels the same way on the second floor as on the ground. Before any pour, the edge strip must be fitted and the membrane taped so nothing leaks beneath.
An extension floor needs to end up level with the house it joins. Any small step left afterwards can be blended with levelling compound. For longer hose runs, see our screed pumping service.
