Liquid screed in Trusham solves what sand-and-cement struggles with — SR1 flatness in a single pour, ready for tilers and joiners within days rather than weeks.
The screed arrives ready-mixed on a truck, gets pumped through a hose to wherever it's needed in the building, and self-levels to within a couple of millimetres across the room. We spike-roll it to release air, then leave it.
Most of our Trusham jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Trusham sits Exeter (11 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.

Right fit for Trusham rural self-builders and farms
Trusham 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.
Liquid Screed in Trusham — how it works
We pump Cemfloor calcium-sulphate screed from a static mixer into your building, level it with a dappling bar, and walk away with a floor that's typically dry enough for floor coverings in roughly one day per millimetre of depth.

What backs our Trusham work
Trusham screed questions, answered
Can other trades work above while you pour?+
We prefer the floor area cleared on pour day, but trades can work in unrelated areas. We'll set out a sensible plan with your site manager.
Can you pour in cold weather?+
Yes, with the right ambient control. We won't pour below 5°C and we'll discuss frost protection for any Trusham pour in the colder months.
How quickly can I walk on a liquid screed floor in Trusham?+
Light foot traffic from 24-48 hours after the pour. Heavy loading, follow-on trades and final floor coverings depend on depth and ambient conditions — we leave you with clear drying guidance for your specific Trusham job.
Can liquid screed go over an existing concrete slab?+
Yes — typically unbonded over a DPM and slip membrane, from 35mm. We'll assess the substrate at the Trusham site visit.
Does liquid screed crack like sand-and-cement?+
Calcium-sulphate and modern cement-based liquid screeds have very low drying shrinkage. With proper edge isolation and joints at doorways, cracking is rare.
Do I need to be on site for the pour in Trusham?+
Not necessarily — we usually agree access with the main contractor or self-builder and run the pour with our own team. We'll confirm the Trusham access route, pump position and waste route before the day.
