Renovation Screed in Instow — how it works
Most Instow renovations want UFH retro-fit. Liquid screed lets you wrap pipes in a thin build-up the original construction never planned for.
Renovation pours typically run unbonded over insulation, with edge isolation against existing walls. We can lay from 35mm where headroom is tight, or full 65-75mm builds where the room can take it.
Materials and systems we use in Instow
Cemfloor CT-C30-F6 (thin-section)
Where minimum depth matters more than maximum mass.
Cemfloor Therm
Retro-fit UFH in renovation builds.
Acoustic underlay
Critical for {town} flat conversions where impact noise is a concern.
Self-levelling overlay primer
For bonded thin-section pours over existing slabs.

Common Instow build questions
Will the screed stick to my old skirtings?+
We fit edge isolation strip against every wall before the pour — no bonding to skirtings, no risk to plaster.
Will it work with my new UFH retro-fit?+
Yes — Cemfloor Therm at 50mm above pipe gives you full UFH performance in a renovation build-up most original structures can accommodate.
Can you do a single room rather than the whole house?+
Yes — single-room renovation pours are a regular run for us across Instow, with movement joints at the doorway to isolate from neighbouring rooms.
Can you screed over my existing concrete floor in Instow?+
Usually yes — if the slab is sound we bond a thin liquid screed straight on top from 30mm. We'll assess the Instow substrate at the site visit and price accordingly.
Is liquid screed safe over a heritage property in Instow?+
With proper edge isolation and movement joints, yes. We discuss any conservation-area or listed-building constraints up front.
What about screeding over a suspended timber floor?+
We can — with insulation, a DPM and structural sign-off that the joists can take the additional dead load. This is common in Instow period properties.
Pin down a date for your Instow pour, and we'll handle the rest — pump, mix, lay, level, protect, hand over.
