Wick and Toddington semis: extensions on liquid screed
A quarter of homes in Littlehampton, 25%, are semis. The project these semis around Wick and Toddington suit is a single storey rear extension, knocked through to the old kitchen. The new floor has to meet the house floor flush, and it often has to be flat enough for large tiles or LVT across the whole room.
Liquid screed handles both. It is pumped in, flows out and self-levels to a height set by laser, so matching an existing level is a matter of setting the datum rather than ruling sand and cement by eye. It shrinks very little, so a large open floor needs few joints. Put a 2m straightedge across it and SR1 or SR2 is well within reach.
It is also thinner. Floated over insulation in a house it can be about 35mm deep, where sand and cement would want 65mm. Commercial floors start around 40mm. On a Wick or Toddington semi, those spare millimetres may decide whether the new kitchen meets the old one flush or with a step up.
Newer houses are a small part of the town, with 12% built since 2000. An extension to one of those still has to finish exactly level with the floor already in the house.
You can choose a calcium sulphate mix or a cement based one. Both pump the same way, and the choice comes down to the finish and whether the floor could get wet. The liquid versus sand and cement guide lays out the trade-offs.
Pumping into Littlehampton terraces and flats
Our lorry and pump need parking close enough for the hose to get to the room, which is no trouble on a semi with its own drive. Terraces nearer the river and town centre, and flats on upper floors, need more planning. The hose can run through a hallway or up a stairwell with the floor protected along the way, but we need to know the route, the parking and any restrictions before the day.
When you ask for a quote, include the address, which floor the room is on, the distance from the road and anything that might block a lorry. Our page on screed pumping shows how a hose line is planned.
You can usually cross the new floor a day or two after pouring, yet it is far from dry. Count on one day for each millimetre up to 40mm, and a slower rate for the rest. A 45mm floor is not ready for timber or vinyl until a moisture test says so. Good airflow helps it along. For the same service about 7 miles away, see liquid screed in Worthing.
