At UK Screeds we are often asked about the benefits of liquid screeds as compared with the traditional one of sand and cement, and the answer is that there are very many. In fact, there are so many that it is difficult to know where to begin.

When you are in the process of constructing a building, there are very many things to consider. One of the most important is the flooring because it will take constant traffic from people walking on it. In some areas, there may be heavy furniture sitting on the floor and, of course, this needs to be level because you don’t want your TV at an angle because it is on a TV stand which in turn is on a floor with dips and bumps in it.

At UK Screeds, we are not only a screeding installation company, but we also install underfloor heating. This is becoming more and more popular as people realise all the benefits when compared with a radiator system.

One of the most important considerations when planning the construction of a building, or buildings, is the timing of the work on site. All of the various trades need to work on the site in the right order and at the right times, so one needs to follow another as quickly as possible in order to keep costs to a minimum and ensure that the project is not delayed. If you have labour hanging around idle, those people still need to be paid, and that means that somebody, somewhere along the line, is going to have to do the paying. Time is of the essence.

At UK Screeds, many people think of us purely as a supplier and installer of floor screeds, largely because of our name. But in fact, we are also suppliers and installers of underfloor heating systems, because they offer so many benefits.

Liquid floor screeds such as the liquid anhydrite screed that we install at UK Screeds do need the preparation work carried out to the very highest of standards, but it is not difficult, and in any case, we carry out all the preparation work for you.

When installing underfloor heating in a building, it is necessary to lay a screed on top of the heating pipes so that the final flooring can be laid on top of that. The screed does a number of jobs, and a liquid anhydrite screed is the preferred type of screed for a number of reasons. In times past, a traditional sand and cement screed would have been used, but today a liquid screed has several advantages.

If you are considering installing underfloor heating in your home in Northampton, there are a lot of advantages to it, one of which is the amount of energy you will save vis-à-vis a radiator system.

When constructing any sort of building, there are many things to take into consideration, but one of the important ones is the levelness, or otherwise, of the flooring. The final flooring, which is going to be walked upon, and in the case of something such as a warehouse may also have to carry things like forklift trucks, needs to be as flat as possible.

Tile is one of the most popular flooring materials throughout Europe. It is a classic design choice for many Victorian properties in the UK and is used increasingly in modern interior schemes today.
