We pride ourselves with over 15 years experience in the application of floor screed and underfloor heating systems throughout the UK.
What Is Liquid Screed?
Recently, there has been a growing demand for liquid screeds in Oxford, such as Gyvlon screed. This is due to the wide range of advantages Gyvlon screed/flowing screed offers compared to its alternatives. Anhydrite screed is becoming highly sought after in the building trade.
Known also as flow screed, self-levelling floor compound is used to provide a smooth, level surface in both domestic and commercial buildings prior to the application of floor finishes. Anhydrite screed is becoming the popular choice for use with underfloor heating, giving you an exceptional and professional finish.
Why Is It Better Than Traditional Sand And Cement Screed?
Liquid screed, or laser screed, has twice the thermal conductivity of conventional, thicker screed. A rise of increased demand for heated underfloor systems has led to this floor levelling compound becoming the popular go-to option. In addition, the screed thickness is substantially thinner and flows into whatever shape is required, while filling all gaps and voids. It’s accurately laser-levelled to a surface regularity of SR2 or better.
The demand for liquid floor screeding in Oxford has been heightened owing to the fact it provides a finished floor surface with exceedingly low shrinkage, minimising the risk of cracking, as it doesn’t curl.
This new generation laser screed is pump applied and can be laid in a day. The best part is that the newly laid surface of this levelling compound can be walked on within 24 to 48 hours, meaning there’s minimal disruption to project timelines.
Finally, liquid levelling compound is far more environmentally friendly compared to old methods. 36% of the material is made from recycled materials and the amount of CO2 being released into the environment is far reduced.

Laying A Liquid Floor Compound Is Far Faster Than Laying Sand And Cement
At UK Screeds, we can lay a liquid power screed in Oxfordshire far faster than sand and cement. Our expert teams can lay 100 square metres in about 45 minutes, and up to 2,000 square metres in a day in Oxfordshire.
What that means for you is that there is no delay to other contractors on the site, and on any construction project in Oxfordshire, time is money. Add to the speed of laying the fact that it is dry enough to walk on in 48 hours or less, and laying sand and cement is no contest.
Furthermore, if you are installing underfloor heating in Oxfordshire, because the screed absolutely covers all the heating pipes with no gaps, the heat transfer into the room is perfectly even with no cold spots. With nearly twice the thermal conductivity of a sand and cement screed in Oxfordshire, combined with the fact that the screed thickness is far less, it requires a lot less energy to bring the room up to the same temperature. It also heats the room far more quickly.
When carrying out floor preparation with anhydrite screed, it does require the use of floor sanding machines to remove the layer of laitance which forms on the surface. Our floor sanding machines have diamond cutting pads, and we sand the screed surface 7 – 10 days after laying in order to leave the perfect finish for the flooring.
With individual thermostats for each room in Oxfordshire, and using our app on your mobile, it is a simple matter to control the heat exactly as it is required. So you can leave the heat off in the bedroom, for example, and then turn it on shortly before going to bed to heat the room quickly, giving the comfort that anyone requires in Oxfordshire, while at the same time-saving money on heating.
