Uplyme 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 Uplyme 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 Uplyme jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Uplyme sits Exeter (28 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.

Built for Uplyme coastal residential and hospitality clients
Uplyme is a coastal town, so damp control, salt exposure and tight winter pour windows shape every brief. We work the diary around that — and around the holiday-let turnover that funds half the jobs here.
Renovation Screed in Uplyme — how it works
Where you're stripping back to a sound original slab in Uplyme, 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 Uplyme clients
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.
Is liquid screed safe over a heritage property in Uplyme?+
With proper edge isolation and movement joints, yes. We discuss any conservation-area or listed-building constraints up front.
Can you do a single room rather than the whole house?+
Yes — single-room renovation pours are a regular run for us across Uplyme, with movement joints at the doorway to isolate from neighbouring rooms.
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 screed over my existing concrete floor in Uplyme?+
Usually yes — if the slab is sound we bond a thin liquid screed straight on top from 30mm. We'll assess the Uplyme substrate at the site visit and price accordingly.
What about screeding over a suspended timber floor?+
We can — with insulation, a DPM and structural sign-off that the joists can take the additional dead load. This is common in Uplyme period properties.
