There’s a new flooring solution on the rise and its popularity is growing at a rapid rate. The demand for liquid screeds in Luton has seen steady growth, as more and more of the building trade have begun to realise the major benefits of its use compared to traditional sand and cement screed.

Why Is Liquid Floor Screed Better Than Traditional Methods?
You may have heard liquid screed called flowing screed, and that is for good reason.
One of the major reasons why it’s a better alternative to sand and cement screed is that it is pump applied to the flooring area and, just like water, flows into all shapes, gaps and holes providing a solid foundation with not an inch of floor missed. Due to its liquid properties, there’s no need to get on your hands and knees to spread the screed, as physics does that for you.
It is, quite simply, much quicker to apply, with the potential of up to 2,000m² being laid in a day. There is no compromise on quality either, with liquid floor screed using advanced laser-levelling technology to ensure a surface regularity level of SR2 or even higher. In addition, the surface has extremely low shrinkage with minimal risk of cracking and it does not curl.
It’s impossible to achieve this level of quality with traditional methods in such a short amount of time. It doesn’t matter what imperfections there are in the concrete below either, as liquid screed will always deliver a high-quality surface. Plus, there’s no need for any reinforcement.
In addition to faster laying times, you can walk on liquid screed within 24 to 48 hours of it being laid, meaning there will be minimal disruption to other trades working on site. If you’re looking to reduce project timelines, then this is a solution you can’t afford to miss.
If you’re looking for a cost-effective flooring solution, then liquid screeds is your answer. With liquid screed having almost double the thermal conductivity compared to traditional screeds, there’s little heat loss and reduced energy loss, especially as it’s laid much thinner than sand and cement screeds.
These are just a few of the reasons why the go-to heated flooring solution for residential and commercial building projects in Luton is liquid screed.
The Environmental Benefits of Liquid Screed
As an added bonus, liquid screed is more environmentally friendly with up to 36% of it being made from recycled materials. With the use of gypsum content, it produces less CO2 into the environment compared to traditional sand and cement. This is fantastic news for companies looking to provide environmentally friendly solutions to their customer base.
