Sawbridgeworth extensions and flats suited to pumped screed
The screed turns up ready to pump. From the mixer, a hose carries it into the room, where it spreads and levels itself across insulation and a membrane. A domestic floating floor begins at roughly 35mm, and SR1 or SR2 regularity is readily achievable, which large format tiles and LVT need.
In Sawbridgeworth the clearest use is the kitchen extension on a later family house. That floor is broad and uncluttered, and it must meet the old kitchen at exactly the right height. One visit with the pump fills it, leaving a fraction of the joints a trowelled floor would need.
Flats come next. Because the pump can lift screed to upper storeys, a first or second floor flat is not ruled out, though the route up a shared stair or along a hallway has to be cleared with the managing agent beforehand.
New homes make a third. Some 16% of Sawbridgeworth homes have been built since 2000, among them Tudor Park off Rochester Avenue and Woodward Gardens. A new house is normally designed with its floor build-up already in mind, so a pumped screed slots in easily.
Flowing floors for Sawbridgeworth homes come in two chemistries, calcium sulphate or cement. Which we pour depends on the rooms, any heating and the floor finish, and our liquid versus sand and cement guide sets the two side by side.
Parking the pump at a Sawbridgeworth address
Ahead of pour day, we need to know where the pump and mixer will stand. A drive at the front of the house makes it easy. If yours has no off-street space, mention parking restrictions, narrow access and any shared passage when you ask for a price. The hose can come through the house, with floors and door frames covered as it goes. Sometimes a suspended parking bay or an early start is the simplest fix, and a few days' warning makes that far easier to arrange than a call on the morning.
People can usually walk on the floor 24 to 48 hours after we finish, so other trades get back in quickly. Flooring takes longer. Allow about one day for each millimetre up to 40mm, more past that, and a test before anything goes down. The set-up is described on our screed pumping service page, and pumps are never hired out without our crew.
