FLOOR SCREEDING IN LONGBRIDGE
Floors Laid Level And Built To Last
Most of the screeding work we're called out for in Longbridge is either levelling an old, uneven suspended-timber or concrete floor before new flooring goes down, or laying a fresh screed as part of an extension or garage conversion. Self-levelling flow screed suits underfloor heating and tight timescales, it self-levels and can often be walked on within a day or two, while a full drying-out period still applies before flooring is fixed down. Traditional sand and cement screed is the sturdier, more cost-effective choice for garages and standard floor build-ups. Longbridge sits on Birmingham's southern tip, close to the Bromsgrove District (Worcestershire) boundary at Rubery and Rednal, worth confirming which authority applies if your property is right on that edge. 1930s-60s semis, much of it built for the car-plant workforce. Larger structural floor changes tied into an extension may need building-control sign-off through Birmingham City Council, straightforward re-screeds don't, and we'll flag it if your job needs it.

Longbridge Floor Screeding FAQs
How much does floor screeding cost in Longbridge?
It depends on the floor area, the screed type and any preparation needed underneath. We give every enquiry a free, itemised quote before any work starts.
Do you cover all of Longbridge, or just parts of it?
All of it, including Northfield and Bournville, Longbridge is one of our regular working areas.
How long does floor screed take to dry before I can walk on it?
Self-levelling screed is often walkable within a day or two. As a rule of thumb, screed dries at roughly 1mm a day before flooring can go down, so a 50mm screed needs a proper drying period, not a guess.
Is self-levelling screed the same as traditional screed?
No. Traditional sand and cement screed is hand-laid and more forgiving on cost, self-levelling flow screed pumps in and levels itself, and suits underfloor heating and faster turnarounds.
Do you lay screed for underfloor heating in Longbridge homes?
Yes, screed depth and type both matter for underfloor heating performance, we'll size it correctly for your system rather than a one-size-fits-all depth.
Can you level an uneven concrete floor in my Longbridge property before I tile or lay LVT?
Yes, a levelling compound or full screed depending on how uneven it is and what's going on top.
Why has my screed cracked?
Usually laid too thin, dried too fast, or laid without the right movement joints. We'll assess the cause before recommending a fix.
Can you screed a garage floor in Longbridge to take a car's weight?
Yes, a properly laid sand and cement screed at the right depth handles vehicle weight without issue.
What preparation do you need before screeding starts?
A sound, clean substrate, and a damp-proof membrane where damp is a risk. We'll check this on the visit and flag anything that needs sorting first.
Do you offer a guarantee on screeding work?
Yes, ask for the specifics when you get your quote.
