Across Cerne Abbas we lay self-levelling Cemfloor screed at depths from 30mm, pumping straight off the truck and finishing to a true SR1 — no hand-trowelling, no cold joints.
Liquid screed bonds into a single monolithic layer with no bays, no day joints and no need for steel mesh — it's poured around any UFH pipework you've already pressure-tested.
Most of our Cerne Abbas jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Cerne Abbas sits Dorchester (8 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.
Who this is for in Cerne Abbas
Cerne Abbas sits rural — barn conversions, self-builds, agricultural sheds, equestrian floors. Access is usually fine, but power and water on site need confirming up front. We do that at the site visit.

Liquid Screed in Cerne Abbas — how it works
Unlike a traditional sand-and-cement screed, you'll be back on the floor in 24-48 hours rather than a week, and the surface is flat enough to lay LVT or large-format tile without further latex.
We pump Cemfloor calcium-sulphate screed from a static mixer into your building, level it with a dappling bar, and walk away with a floor that's typically dry enough for floor coverings in roughly one day per millimetre of depth.

Common Cerne Abbas build questions
How long does a Cerne Abbas pour take?+
A typical domestic floor of 80-120m² is pumped, levelled and finished in a single morning. We coordinate access and pump position with you in advance.
How quickly can I walk on a liquid screed floor in Cerne Abbas?+
Light foot traffic from 24-48 hours after the pour. Heavy loading, follow-on trades and final floor coverings depend on depth and ambient conditions — we leave you with clear drying guidance for your specific Cerne Abbas job.
Can you pour in cold weather?+
Yes, with the right ambient control. We won't pour below 5°C and we'll discuss frost protection for any Cerne Abbas pour in the colder months.
Can liquid screed go over an existing concrete slab?+
Yes — typically unbonded over a DPM and slip membrane, from 35mm. We'll assess the substrate at the Cerne Abbas site visit.
Does liquid screed crack like sand-and-cement?+
Calcium-sulphate and modern cement-based liquid screeds have very low drying shrinkage. With proper edge isolation and joints at doorways, cracking is rare.
Do you offer a guarantee?+
Yes — as a Cemfloor-certified installer, qualifying jobs are backed by a 10-year manufacturer-supported guarantee.
