When you need sand screed in Slough, you are calling a local business. K & B Screeding Ltd is based at 284 Lynch Hill Lane, Slough, SL2 2PU, so most of the town is within a few miles of our own front door. That means quick site visits, flexible start dates, and a team that is never far away if you need us.
Traditional sand and cement screed is one of our core specialisms. It is versatile, strong once cured, and the right choice for a huge range of Slough projects, from a small garage conversion in Cippenham to a commercial unit on the trading estate.
Sand and cement screeding for Slough homes
Slough's housing is dominated by inter-war and post-war semi-detached homes, terraces and bungalows, alongside newer estates and town centre flats. Common screeding projects in housing like this include:
- Rear and side extensions on semis and terraces in areas such as Cippenham, Langley and Upton.
- Garage conversions, where the floor must be raised, insulated and screeded to match the house.
- Bungalow renovations and loft conversions, where old floors are replaced as part of the work.
- Bathroom and wet room refits, where cement based screed is the right material.
- Whole ground floor renovations in older homes with uneven or failing floors.
A traditional sand and cement screed is ideal for these jobs. It copes well with small rooms and awkward shapes, it is at home in wet areas, and it can be adjusted to suit each floor. For floating floors over insulation, fibres can be added, as in our fibre reinforced screed, to control shrinkage cracking. If the programme is tight, a quick drying screed lets the flooring go down much sooner.
Commercial sand screed in Slough
Slough is one of the busiest business locations in the Thames Valley, and the Slough Trading Estate and the town's other industrial and office areas are full of premises that need hard wearing floors. We lay high strength screeds for warehouses, workshops, showrooms and offices, designed and compacted to cope with heavy traffic, and we carry out screed repairs to damaged floors in existing units.
How we lay sand screed
- Survey. We check the base, the depth available and what floor finish is going down.
- Preparation. Membranes and edge strip are fitted, and levels are set across the floor.
- Laying. The screed is mixed to the right consistency, placed, thoroughly compacted and ruled off to level.
- Finishing. The surface is closed with a trowel or power float for a dense, even finish.
- Aftercare. We explain curing, ventilation and when the floor will be ready for flooring.
For guidance on depths, see our screed thickness guide, and for drying times, read how long screed takes to dry.
Sand screed or liquid screed?
Both are popular in Slough. Sand and cement suits smaller areas, wet rooms, conversions and floors that must be used early. Liquid screed in Slough is usually better for large, open extensions and new builds with underfloor heating. We will recommend whichever suits your project, and our comparison guide on liquid screed vs sand and cement explains the differences.
Garage conversions in Slough
Garage conversions are a common project in Slough's inter-war and post-war semis. The existing garage slab is usually lower than the house and has no insulation, so we lay a damp proof membrane, insulation and a floating sand and cement screed, typically at least 65mm thick, to bring the floor up level with the rest of the home. Our garage floor screed guide explains the build-up in detail.
