From RD&E Hospital precinct commercial floors to Mount Pleasant self-builds, liquid screed gives you one continuous slab with no shrinkage cracks and minimal curling.
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.
Most of our Heavitree jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Heavitree sits Exeter (1 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.

Liquid Screed in Heavitree — how it works
The screed arrives ready-mixed on a truck, gets pumped through a hose to wherever it's needed in the building, and self-levels to within a couple of millimetres across the room. We spike-roll it to release air, then leave it.
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.

FAQs from Heavitree clients
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 Heavitree pour in the colder months.
How quickly can I walk on a liquid screed floor in Heavitree?+
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 Heavitree job.
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 Heavitree 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 I need to be on site for the pour in Heavitree?+
Not necessarily — we usually agree access with the main contractor or self-builder and run the pour with our own team. We'll confirm the Heavitree access route, pump position and waste route before the day.
Do you offer a guarantee?+
Yes — as a Cemfloor-certified installer, qualifying jobs are backed by a 10-year manufacturer-supported guarantee.
Heavitree jobs reward proper site prep. We'll spec the build-up with your UFH installer, agree the pour window, and leave you a floor your tilers will thank us for.
