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.
