Who this is for in Maiden Newton
Maiden Newton 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.
Renovation Screed in Maiden Newton — how it works
Most Maiden Newton 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.

Common Maiden Newton build questions
Is liquid screed safe over a heritage property in Maiden Newton?+
With proper edge isolation and movement joints, yes. We discuss any conservation-area or listed-building constraints up front.
Can you screed over my existing concrete floor in Maiden Newton?+
Usually yes — if the slab is sound we bond a thin liquid screed straight on top from 30mm. We'll assess the Maiden Newton substrate at the site visit and price accordingly.
Can you do a single room rather than the whole house?+
Yes — single-room renovation pours are a regular run for us across Maiden Newton, with movement joints at the doorway to isolate from neighbouring rooms.
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.
How do you handle threshold heights in older Maiden Newton properties?+
We design the build-up around your target finished-floor level — including covering thickness — so doors still swing and thresholds still meet. Often that means thinner insulation and a thinner screed.
