Screeding Contractors in Hampshire

K M Flow Screed installs liquid screed, self levelling compound and underfloor heating from a base in Frimley Green, with our own fleet of ready mix trucks and the same materials on every job, our own self levelling compounds, acrylic primer sealers and rapid setting mortar included.

A lot of the rural properties we work on are off the mains gas grid and running on a heat pump rather than a boiler. Underfloor heating suits a heat pump far better than radiators do, since it runs happily at the lower flow temperature a heat pump produces, so we see a fair number of jobs where the two go in together.

Liquid screed, self levelling compound and underfloor heating make up the bulk of what we do here, using acrylic primer sealers and rapid setting mortar from our own stock. Here is what each one actually involves.

Liquid Screed

A self levelling mix of cement, water and additives gets pumped across the floor to leave a smooth, even surface, cutting out most of the labour a hand mixed screed would need. On larger rural plots a single pour can cover considerably more floor area than a town job, so having our own fleet of ready mix trucks matters, since we are not waiting on an outside supplier partway through a bigger job.

Underfloor Heating

Where a property runs on a heat pump instead of a boiler, underfloor heating is usually the better match because it works efficiently at the lower flow temperatures heat pumps produce, unlike radiators which often need a higher flow temperature to do the same job. We install and repair both wet, hydronic systems and dry, electric systems, using thermal imaging equipment to track down faults quickly, whether that is an air lock, a wiring issue, or a stubborn zone that will not heat up.

Barn conversions, farmhouse renovations and new builds on larger plots make up a good share of our work out this way. A bigger plot usually means a bigger pour, and a period building usually means working round walls and floors that were never built with underfloor heating in mind, so both change how we plan the job before we even arrive.

At K M Flow Screed, we treat every client with equal care and attention, regardless of the size of the project. We provide personalised services tailored to your specific needs, and our portfolio of completed work spans everything from single room flow screeding jobs in Farnborough homes to large scale commercial and retail developments. We supply and pour screed for new floors ready for underfloor heating and tiled flooring alike.

Underfloor Heating Screed

The depth of screed over underfloor heating pipework has more effect on how well the system runs than most people assume. Too thin and efficiency drops, too thick and the whole thing takes considerably longer to heat and dry. We work to 50 to 55mm of liquid screed over the pipework as standard, rising to a minimum of 65mm for a hand mixed screed, always over a properly insulated slab to stop heat loss.

Self-Levelling Compound

 

Not every uneven floor in an older property needs a full screed. Self levelling compound can sort it out in a fraction of the depth, sometimes as little as an eighth of an inch, which suits cottage and farmhouse renovations well since it disturbs the existing floor structure far less than a full screed would. It sets quickly, so it needs a team who know what they are doing before that happens.

FAQs

You can normally walk on liquid screed within 24 to 48 hours of it being poured, depending on the thickness of the layer and the conditions on site. That is just the start of the process though. Full drying, meaning the point where the floor is ready for tiles, wood or other coverings, takes considerably longer , and we will always give you a realistic drying schedule for your specific job rather than a generic figure. 

For most Farnborough jobs we install liquid screed at 50 to 55mm over underfloor heating pipework, which keeps the layer thin enough for efficient heat transfer while still protecting the pipes properly. Where a hand mixed screed is being used instead of liquid, the minimum depth increases to 65mm. The exact depth always depends on the pipe spacing and the insulation beneath the slab, which we assess on site before quoting. 

Yes. Self levelling compound is designed to go over existing screed, concrete or timber floors, and is one of the main reasons it is so useful for renovation projects in Farnborough where ripping out the existing floor is not practical. It can be applied in layers as thin as an eighth of an inch, so it is often the quickest way to get an uneven floor ready for new carpet, tile, LVT or wood. 

Yes, we carry out both. Common problems we are called out for include air locked pipes, wiring faults, worn out heating pumps and individual zones that will not heat up properly. We use thermal imaging equipment to find the exact source of the problem before starting any repair work, which keeps disruption to your Farnborough property to a minimum. 

Yes, there is no charge and no obligation for a quote. We will visit the property, assess what is needed, and give you a clear price and timescale before any work is agreed.
