New build sites in Merriott run to a programme, not a wish list, and screed is usually the trade holding up everything behind it. We sequence plot by plot so your follow-on trades never sit idle.
Each plot is pumped, levelled and spike-rolled as its own visit, but priced and scheduled as part of one development-wide package, so you get a single point of contact across the whole Merriott site rather than a new quote for every unit.
Most of our Merriott jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Merriott sits Taunton (16 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.
New Build Screeding in Merriott — how it works
New build UFH, screed depth and floor build-up are agreed with your architect and M&E consultant once, then repeated consistently across every plot in the Merriott scheme, so plot 1 and plot 40 come out identical.
We work from the site programme, not just the drawings, agreeing pump positions, plot order and waste routes with the site manager before mobilising, so a Merriott development moves through screed without a gap in the build sequence.

Common Merriott build questions
What happens if a plot isn't ready when our crew arrives?+
We build flexibility into the plot sequence and communicate daily with the site manager, moving to the next ready plot rather than losing the day.
How many plots can you screed per day on a Merriott development?+
It depends on floor area and pump access, but a typical crew moves through several plots a day on a standard housing scheme, with output agreed against your programme at the pre-start meeting.
How do you hand over moisture readings on a multi-plot job?+
Each plot gets its own CM-test record and written sign-off, so your flooring contractor or NHBC inspector has a clear document per unit, not one blanket certificate for the site.
Do you provide RAMS for a new build site in Merriott?+
Yes, full RAMS, COSHH documentation and insurance details are issued ahead of mobilisation, formatted for your CDM principal contractor.
Do you price the whole Merriott site or plot by plot?+
Both, most developers prefer a single development-wide package with a per-plot rate, so instructing extra plots later is straightforward and there's no re-quoting for every unit.
Can you keep the same build-up across every plot?+
Yes, we agree the specification once with your architect or M&E consultant and repeat it consistently, so plot 1 and the last plot on the Merriott site come out to the same depth and finish.
