Pumping liquid screed into Royal Leamington Spa flats
With so many homes in purpose-built blocks, a lot of floors in Royal Leamington Spa are reached by stair or lift rather than through a front door at ground level. Liquid screed handles this well. The mixer truck and pump stay at street level and the material travels through a hose, so the route rather than the floor level decides the setup.
The practical questions are simple. Where can the truck stand, and for how long? How does the hose reach the flat: up the stairwell, through a window, or along a corridor? Do the managing agent or neighbours need notice, and do shared areas need protecting? Sorting these before the pour keeps the day short. A pumped pour also means far fewer trips through shared hallways than barrows of hand-mixed screed would need.
Once inside, the screed floats on insulation at a depth starting near 35mm for a flat or house, rising to near 40mm where the floor is commercial. Because it settles under its own weight, the finished surface can meet SR1 or SR2, flat enough for LVT or sheet vinyl laid straight on top.
Pump, hoses and operators all arrive with us, and none of our machines are for hire. Our screed pumping service page sets out how the pump and hose are run. Sound separation between flats is a matter for the building's design and should be settled before the screed type is chosen.
Open-plan kitchens and extensions across Royal Leamington Spa
The town's post-war semis typically gain a rear extension, often opening the back of the house into one kitchen and living space. That is exactly the kind of floor liquid screed suits: wide, open, often heated, and needing to be flat enough for large tiles or LVT.
Only 12% of homes here were built in 2000 or later, so most extensions join a much older house. The new floor has to meet the existing level, and the depth of insulation and screed is set to make that work.
You can have a liquid screed made on a calcium sulphate base or on a cement one. What goes on top, and whether water could ever reach the floor, decides between them; for the calcium sulphate kind, read our anhydrite page for Leamington. Treading on it within a day or two is one thing, laying the LVT another, because the first 40mm dry at something like a millimetre a day. Undecided between pumped and hand-laid? Read which screed suits which job before you choose. For a project just west, see liquid screed in Warwick.
