Benefits of Our Liquid Screed

Great For Underfloor Heating & Compatible with All Floor Types

Our pumped liquid screed is an excellent thermal conductor, making it ideal for underfloor heating. It surrounds the heating pipes, ensuring efficient heat transfer. Thanks to its superior thermal properties, it retains heat longer than traditional concrete, helping you save energy on your flooring.

We use top-quality liquid screed supplied by Cemfloor, suitable for all types of flooring, including carpet, timber, laminate, ceramic tiles, and vinyl. Once fully dried, you can lay your chosen floor directly on the screed, with no fuss.

Smooth, Even Finishes

At 2 Brothers Concrete & Pumping, the liquid screed we use is a self-compacting, self-levelling material that flows easily to fill any space. Thanks to its pumped screed application, it finds its own level quickly, creating a smooth and even surface for your flooring.

This consistent finish ensures uniformity across the entire floor, reducing bumps and uneven patches. By using pumped screed, we help prevent common floor levelling problems, giving you a reliable base for a flawless final flooring installation.

Fast Installation

When it comes to fast installation, you cannot go wrong with liquid screed. Thanks to its pumped screed consistency, it spreads easily across the floor, creating a smooth, level finish without manual levelling or trowelling.

This self-levelling quality cuts down on labour time and effort, allowing contractors to cover larger areas quickly. As a result, installation is faster and more cost-effective compared to traditional screeds, making liquid screed the smart choice for floor levelling projects.

Use of a Cement-Based Liquid Screed

There are situations where a latex-based screed just won’t cut it. Our pumped liquid screed is cement-based, not latex, meaning it offers greater strength and durability, making it ideal for high-traffic or heavy-load areas.

It’s also highly compatible with underfloor heating, efficiently transferring heat to the surface. Plus, it provides a strong, stable base that works well with a wide range of floor coverings, including tiles and stone. If you need reliable liquid screed that performs, we’ve got you covered.

Continue to Work in the Area Within 24-48 Hours

Time is precious; the good news is that our liquid screed typically dries fully in 21 days, but the real benefit is that it can handle foot traffic just 24 to 48 hours after being laid. This fast turnaround is a huge advantage of using pumped screed, especially cement-based types.

It means your project won’t be held up, allowing you and other tradespeople to continue work without delay. With liquid screed, you get a quicker, smoother workflow on site every time.

When Liquid Screed Works Best - and When to Consider Alternatives

Liquid screed is a reliable and flexible option for many flooring projects, especially in new builds and renovations. It flows easily, creating a smooth, level surface that’s ideal for laying most floor coverings.

One of its biggest advantages is its excellent thermal conductivity, making it perfect for underfloor heating systems. It efficiently transfers heat from the pipes to the floor and helps keep the warmth longer.

Thanks to our specialist pumping equipment, we can deliver liquid screed quickly and evenly, even in hard-to-reach spaces like barns, extensions, or smaller housing developments.

However, liquid screed isn’t always the best fit. It’s less suitable for outdoor areas or places prone to excessive moisture. In such cases, alternatives like traditional sand and cement screed or dry screed might be a better choice.

Liquid Screed vs Dry Screed: What is the Difference?

Liquid screed and dry screed are two common types of floor levelling materials, but they differ in composition, application, and performance.

Liquid screed is a flowing mixture made from cement, water, and additives. It’s pumped or poured onto floors, creating a smooth, even surface that self-levels as it settles. This makes it ideal for complex or large areas. It dries relatively quickly and works well with underfloor heating due to its excellent thermal conduction.

Dry screed, on the other hand, is a pre-mixed, dry material often containing sand, cement, and aggregates. It’s laid manually and compacted to form a solid base. Dry screed is suitable for smaller jobs or where quick drying isn’t critical.

Key differences:

Liquid Screed is Pump-Applied; Dry Screed is Laid Manually

Liquid Screed Self-Levels; Dry Screed Requires More Manual Effort

Liquid Screed Dries Faster

Liquid Screed Suits Underfloor Heating Better

Dry Screed Is Often Cheaper and Better for Minor Repairs

Choosing the right screed depends on your project’s size, timeline, and heating needs.
