The flooring in your house or workplace is crucial for creating a functional and elegant interior. Before any flooring installation, it is necessary to ensure that the ground is fully levelled and even because irregular floors are unappealing.
Installing liquid screed is the perfect solution for achieving a floor with an even surface. This self-levelling mixture ensures a streamlined and even finish on the subfloor, usually made of concrete. It is compatible with all types of flooring, including:
- Vinyl Tiles
- Wooden Flooring
- Ceramic Tiles
In addition to levelling, liquid screed serves numerous objectives, such as:
- Establishing a non-porous layer
- Sound Proofing
- Enhancing the performance of your heating system
We, the floor screeding contractors at K M Flow Screed, install high-quality liquid screeds that enable you to enjoy all these advantages.

Unlock Superior Thermal Comfort
Liquid screed, also known as flow screed, provides greater thermal efficiency than dry screed. It self-levels and forms a smooth layer over concrete by efficiently filling all pores and gaps. It is also compatible with underfloor heating systems. The heat flowing from your heating system to the floor gets evenly distributed, improving its overall radiation efficiency with liquid screed.
The liquid screed is usually applied in thin layers, providing space for the installation of thicker insulation. This minimises heat dissipation and consequently alleviates the pressure on your heating system. Our liquid screed services enable you to lessen energy expenses while experiencing enhanced heating performance.
Effortless Application and Reliable Curing
Our specialists will guarantee that the place where liquid screed is to be installed is clear of dust and scraps. The floor is primed to remove any cracks or gaps. After applying the first layer of liquid screed, it normally takes one to two days to set firmly. The final curing completely depends on the following:
- Layer Thickness
- Ecological Conditions
The curing process takes approximately 7 to 21 days.
With an underfloor heating system in place, the performance and characteristics of the liquid screed will improve over time when the heating is turned on. Its self-levelling feature prevents air bubbles from forming, giving you peace of mind and comfort.
We guarantee the flawless application of liquid screed in Berkshire for your domestic and business properties.
