Flowline lays free-flowing, self-levelling screed and pumps concrete exactly where it is needed. From floor prep through to the finished pour, one team handles the lot, so your programme stays on track.
Liquid screed, laid flat
Because we handle preparation, pumping and finishing ourselves, there are no gaps between trades and no one else to wait on. That keeps your job moving and the standard consistent.
Free-flowing, self-levelling screed pumped in fast and finished to a flat, high-tolerance surface. The ideal partner for underfloor heating.
Get concrete precisely where you need it, including tight or awkward access, without barrowing across site.
Good preparation is what makes a screed last. We get the substrate right before a drop is poured.
Backed by 20 years in the trade, we cover the groundworks so your project runs from the ground up.
Liquid screed is pumped in and finds its own level, so you get a flat, consistent surface across large areas far quicker than traditional sand and cement. It flows tight around underfloor heating pipes with no voids, which means better heat transfer and a more efficient floor.
It lets us cover a lot of ground in a day and hand the floor back sooner, so the trades behind you are not left waiting.
Talk to us about your floorNo surprises. Here is how a typical job runs from first call to a floor you can build on.
Tell us the job, the location and rough sizes. We come back with a clear, fixed price.
We prepare and prime the substrate and set out any underfloor heating, ready to pour.
Screed or concrete is pumped in and finished to a flat, consistent surface.
We leave the site clean and tell you exactly what happens next as it cures.
Prior to laying screed it is vital that the subfloor is prepared correctly. Rushing or skipping this stage is one of the most common causes of a failed floor, from cracking and hollow spots to damp and moisture damage further down the line. We take the time to get the base right so the finished floor performs for years.
Floor preparation for liquid screed typically involves:
From the ground up, this is how the layers stack beneath a finished floor.
Using laser levels, we assess the evenness of the subfloor and remove any high or low points as required. The surface is then cleaned to clear debris and contaminants, so every layer above it can sit and bond correctly.
This is the stage most problems trace back to, which is exactly why we do not cut corners on it.
A damp proof membrane, typically 1200 gauge, is laid to form an impermeable barrier across the floor. This prevents damp working its way up into the insulation and screed above.
Protecting the build-up from moisture safeguards both the floor and its long-term thermal performance.
Screed is commonly laid over rigid floor insulation such as PIR or EPS. Properly installed insulation makes a significant difference to heat loss and helps maximise energy efficiency.
Boards are selected for the right compressive strength, thermal value and depth, then tightly butt jointed with staggered joints. Any small gaps are filled to eliminate lateral movement.
A foam edge strip, usually 8 to 10mm, is fitted to the perimeter. This allows the screed to expand and contract as it dries and, where underfloor heating is fitted, as the floor warms and cools.
A tanking membrane is then laid over the insulation, up to at least the height of the edge strip. It encapsulates the screed and stops the liquid escaping once it is poured.
Where underfloor heating is being installed, we set out and secure the pipework before the screed goes down. Because liquid screed flows and self-levels, it surrounds the pipes completely with no voids.
That means better contact, faster heat transfer and a more efficient, even floor than you would get with traditional screed.
Flowline is led by Lee, who has spent over 20 years in groundworks and the wider building trade. That hands-on background is why we can take a floor from bare ground through to a finished screed, rather than only doing one part of the job.
The promise is simple: we turn up when we say we will, we keep you informed if anything changes, and we leave your site clean and safe. Hardworking and tidy is what our customers tell us, and it is how we like to work.
