Liquid screed for a Starcross renovation is often the fastest route back to a usable floor: bonded pour from 30mm, cover in the afternoon, back on the floor in 48 hours.
For a Starcross renovation on EX6, liquid screed re-floors an old property without hand-mixing bay by bay. We usually pour bonded from 30mm on a sound existing slab, or unbonded on a fresh DPM.
Renovation screed in Starcross means working around what's already there — old services, uneven floors, tight door thresholds. We build the pour plan around it, not the other way round.
Renovation Floor Screed in Starcross — how it works
Retrofit pours in Starcross usually go bonded — 30–40mm of Cemfloor on a sound, primed existing slab, ideal where door thresholds and stair heights are fixed. We prime, edge-isolate, pour, spike-roll, cover.
For fresh DPM builds on a Starcross renovation we pour 50–65mm unbonded. The heavier build-up gives UFH-friendly thermal storage and a proper barrier against ground moisture in older properties.

renovation screed FAQs from Starcross clients
Do you work in occupied houses?+
Yes — with protection to routes and clean pump-line entry. Common on Starcross renovation jobs where the owner stays in the house.
How long before I can tile?+
For a 40mm bonded Starcross pour, usually 3–4 weeks to moisture-test target with reasonable ventilation.
Is your price fixed?+
Yes — written fixed price once we've done the Starcross site visit and specified the build-up.
Can you screed over an existing slab in Starcross?+
Yes — usually bonded from 30mm on a sound primed substrate. Site visit first to check the Starcross slab is fit to bond.
Do you supply insulation and DPM?+
Yes if the renovation needs a full build-up. On Starcross retrofits with fixed thresholds we usually pour direct on a primed substrate.
Will the new floor sit under my existing thresholds?+
We laser-check every threshold at the site visit and plan pour depth around them for Starcross renovations.
