Local floor screed supply and delivery across Horsham RH12, RH13, Southwater and Broadbridge Heath
Horsham screed work has a rural character. Barn conversions, outbuilding conversions, annexes and large rural extensions, alongside new build estate work around Southwater and Broadbridge Heath. Underfloor heating comes up far more often here than in town, because rural properties frequently have no mains gas and are running heat pumps, which work best with underfloor systems.

Underfloor heating screed, and why it matters more here
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than gas boilers, which makes the screed specification more consequential rather than less. The system relies on a large emitting surface at modest temperature, so the screed has to conduct heat efficiently and encase the pipework fully.
Depth is the balance. Enough to give cover and thermal mass, not so much that the system takes half a day to respond.
Tell us the pipe centres, the insulation build up, the heat source and the intended floor covering. The heat source genuinely changes the advice.
Barn conversions and large floor areas
Barn conversions bring two constraints together. The floor areas are large, often open plan with few internal walls to break them up, which means bay layout and movement joints need planning rather than improvising. And the building is usually old, sometimes listed, frequently structurally delicate and almost never accessible to a heavy vehicle.
Screed is pumped in, which keeps plant away from the structure. See concrete pump hire in Horsham.
Delivery to rural Horsham sites
Sussex lanes are narrow, verges are soft and farm approaches are not built for an eight wheeler. We plan where the vehicle stands before arriving and run the line out from there. Tell us roughly how far it is from firm standing to the floor.
Screed types and depths
Barn conversions usually mean a floating screed over insulation at 65 to 75mm, laid onto a new slab and damp proof membrane.
| Screed type | Typical depth | Dries enough to walk on | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sand and cement (bonded) | Typical depth25 to 40mm | Dries enough to walk on24 to 48 hours | Best forThin sections over a sound base |
| Sand and cement (unbonded) | Typical depth50mm plus | Dries enough to walk on24 to 48 hours | Best forOver a damp proof membrane |
| Sand and cement (floating) | Typical depth65 to 75mm | Dries enough to walk on24 to 48 hours | Best forOver insulation, with or without UFH |
| Fibre reinforced | Typical depth40mm plus | Dries enough to walk on24 to 48 hours | Best forWhere cracking risk is higher |
Roughly a day per millimetre for the first 50mm, longer beyond and longer in cold or humid conditions.
Rural barn conversions are often unheated and poorly ventilated during the build, which extends drying considerably. If flooring is booked, build in contingency.
