When Marsh Barton self-builders specify UFH, the screed is what makes the system efficient. We pump Cemfloor Therm directly around your pressure-tested pipework for full encapsulation.
For Marsh Barton UFH builds the typical sequence is: insulation board down, pipes clipped and pressure-tested, edge insulation in place, then we pump and level in a single visit.

Underfloor Heating Screed in Marsh Barton — how it works
Liquid UFH screed lets you run a thinner build-up than traditional bays — useful when ceiling heights or threshold levels are tight in Marsh Barton renovations.
We pour Cemfloor Therm liquid screed over your UFH pipes at 50mm above pipe (typically 65-75mm total over insulation), giving full pipe encapsulation, fast thermal response and a finished surface flat to SR1.
Right fit for Marsh Barton contractors and developers
Marsh Barton skews commercial — trade parks like Marsh Barton Trading Estate, contractor-led fit-outs, and developer estates. We price as a sub-contractor on programme, with RAMS and CDM documentation issued ahead of mobilisation.

Common Marsh Barton build questions
Does liquid UFH screed improve EPC ratings?+
Indirectly — yes. Faster response and lower running temperatures help heat-pump COP, which feeds into your SAP/EPC. We'll share the manufacturer data your assessor needs.
Will the screed crack as the UFH heats up?+
Properly isolated at the edges and at doorway joints, no. We pour with the pipes pressure-tested and follow a controlled commissioning schedule.
When can I switch the underfloor heating on in Marsh Barton?+
On Cemfloor Therm we typically start a slow commissioning cycle from day 7, ramping 5°C per day per manufacturer spec. Forcing it earlier risks cracking, so we hold Marsh Barton clients to the schedule.
What if a pipe leaks during the pour?+
Pipes are held at 6 bar through the pour. Any pressure drop is flagged immediately and we stop, fix and continue — this is exactly why we keep the manifold under test.
What depth of screed over UFH pipes do you recommend?+
Minimum 50mm cover above the highest pipe — usually a 65-75mm total slab over insulation. Thicker if you want more thermal mass.
Can you pour over a heat-pump system in Marsh Barton?+
Yes — and we'd argue you should. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than gas, so the screed's thermal conductivity matters more, not less.
