Screeds

Screeds on precast planks.

Flowing and self-compacting screeds installed on precast concrete plank decks, including upper floors where access and weight both matter.

The work

Upper decks, covered quickly and cleanly.

Precast plank decks are common in modern multi-storey construction, and they need a screed that bonds well, levels fast and reaches every part of the deck.

Our placing booms let us deliver screed across upper floors without craning plant up, and self-compacting systems remove the need for late powerfloating.

  • Upper-deck reach. Track-mounted placing booms, two of only three in the UK, deliver screed across floors at height.
  • Fast and flat. Flowing systems level quickly over precast decks.
  • Clean method. Self-compacting options avoid late working on site.

Detail

How we approach precast plank screeds

Survey and set out

We survey the deck, confirm datums and falls, and plan the pour and boom positions around the building and the programme.

Place and finish

Screed is pumped and placed to level, with the system chosen to suit the finish, the loading and the time available.

FAQs

Common questions

Can you screed upper floors without craning plant up?
Yes. Our track-mounted placing booms deliver screed across upper decks, two of only three in the country.
Do precast plank screeds need powerfloating?
Not with self-compacting systems, which avoid late working on site.
How quickly can a deck be screeded?
Flowing systems cover large deck areas quickly to a flat finish. Exact rates depend on access and the system.
