Poundbury garage conversions and new garages need a floor that's flat enough for a polyurea or epoxy finish — that's a job for liquid screed, not hand-trowelled mortar.
Liquid screed over a garage slab leaves a surface flat enough for direct application of two-pack epoxy, polyurea or polyaspartic floor coatings — no further levelling compound required.
Most of our Poundbury jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Poundbury sits Dorchester (1 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.
Garage Floor Screed in Poundbury — how it works
We assess the existing slab, prep with shot-blasting or grinding where needed, lay edge isolation and a DPM if unbonded, then pump and level the screed in a single visit.

Poundbury screed questions, answered
How long before I can park on it?+
Light foot traffic by day 2, but we'd recommend at least 7 days before driving on, and longer if you're applying a finish on top.
Can I finish the floor with epoxy?+
Absolutely — liquid screed gives you a flat, dense base that resin coatings bond to well once the screed is dry and the surface laitance is sanded off.
Can liquid screed take an EV charger and a car's weight in Poundbury?+
Yes — a properly specified 40-50mm liquid screed easily handles domestic vehicle loads. We'll size the build-up to your Poundbury garage usage.
What about cold garages — will it cure?+
We won't pour below 5°C. For winter jobs we'll either heat the space or schedule for a mild day in your Poundbury diary.
Will it slope to a drain?+
Liquid screed self-levels — it won't form a fall. If you need a drain fall in your Poundbury garage, we form it in the substrate first, then screed at constant thickness.
Do you tidy up afterwards?+
Wash-out is bagged and removed. We leave the Poundbury site clean and the floor protected with sheeting.
