Sowton renovators love liquid screed because it lets you keep the existing slab, add insulation and UFH, and still come in under a normal door threshold height.
Most Sowton renovations want UFH retro-fit. Liquid screed lets you wrap pipes in a thin build-up the original construction never planned for.
Most of our Sowton jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Sowton sits Exeter (3 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.

Renovation Screed in Sowton — how it works
Where you're stripping back to a sound original slab in Sowton, we'll prep, prime and bond a thin liquid screed straight onto it from 30mm — no need to dig out.
Old buildings move differently. We talk through movement joints at thresholds and against existing walls, so the new floor doesn't fight the old structure.

FAQs from Sowton clients
Is liquid screed safe over a heritage property in Sowton?+
With proper edge isolation and movement joints, yes. We discuss any conservation-area or listed-building constraints up front.
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 screed over my existing concrete floor in Sowton?+
Usually yes — if the slab is sound we bond a thin liquid screed straight on top from 30mm. We'll assess the Sowton substrate at the site visit and price accordingly.
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.
Can you do a single room rather than the whole house?+
Yes — single-room renovation pours are a regular run for us across Sowton, with movement joints at the doorway to isolate from neighbouring rooms.
How do you handle threshold heights in older Sowton 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.
