20m² liquid screed over underfloor heating in a Horfield terrace
New underfloor heating on the ground floor of a Victorian terrace, screeded in one visit with the pump on the street outside.
The job
The ground floor of a Victorian terraced house in Horfield, Bristol, was being renovated, with new wet underfloor heating going in through the kitchen and the rooms behind it. The floor area was 20m².
How we did it
Like most terraces, there was no side access. The screed truck and our Putzmeister SP 11 pump parked on the street, and the hose ran through the front of the house to the floor. Perimeter edge strip went round every wall and the bay window, and level tripods were set across the floor before pumping.
The screed was pumped over the heating pipes so it flowed underneath and around them, then levelled to the tripods and dappled to release air. The screed was laid at an average depth of 50mm.
The result
A flat, level floor with the heating pipes fully encapsulated, ready for the heating to be commissioned in line with Cemfloor's guidance.
