Yateley houses and the screed each one needs
Census 2021 counted 6,081 households in the Yateley built-up area. Apart from the old centre around St Peter's Church and the White Lion, nearly all of it is modern, and 49% of homes date from 1945 to 1972. Houses of that vintage have reached the point where kitchens get opened up, ground floors get remodelled and extensions wrap around the back and side.
Out of that come a handful of floor problems that keep turning up, and we have a page for each.
Pull up the old carpet during an open-plan remodel and you may find the screed beneath is hollow or crumbling. That has to be broken out and replaced, and relaying in sand and cement by hand is normally the practical way, since it goes down one room at a time and to whatever depth the old floor leaves.
Wrap an extension round the house and its floor must be raised to sit exactly level with the existing one. Across a wide, open extension, liquid screed from the pump spreads out flat over the whole area in a single visit.
Planning underfloor heating? Pipes laid on insulation and covered with a flowing screed go together well, and our page on heated floor screed in Yateley explains pipe cover and the first warm-up.
And if the floor is sound but just not flat, which is typical where old meets new, levelling with compound can get it ready for LVT, tiles or wood with no new screed at all.

Planning a pour from Frogmore to Moulsham Green
Our area takes in all of Yateley, with Frogmore, Darby Green and Moulsham Green included, and postcodes here include GU46 and GU17. In any of them, the pour only runs smoothly if the rest of the build is ready for us.
That means the extension is sealed from the weather, the windows and doors are in and the plasterers have finished their wet work. Where there will be underfloor heating, your engineer must already have laid the pipes and put them through a pressure test. Once poured, the floor has to dry before flooring is fitted, and the time depends on the type of screed and how deep it is, so book the floor layer around the screed, not the reverse.
On a pumped job, the mixer and pump must be parked where the hose can reach your door. A driveway makes that easy; if parking on your road is tight, say so when you ask for a price. On a hand-laid job, barrows need an unobstructed way through the house or along the side.
Sometimes an old floor has failed only in patches, not across the whole room, and then repairing the screed may be enough. We will look at it and tell you which job you actually have.
