Barn Conversion in Tarporley

Brief

We were contracted to supply and install 260m² of liquid flowing Gyvlon screed at 50mm to the ground floor of a barn conversion. Another company had installed the floor insulation and underfloor heating prior to us, but were unable to carry out the screeding.

Our liquid floor screeding Liverpool branch was tasked to finish the job and allow the rest of the work on the barn conversion to proceed to the client’s specifications.

Key Considerations When Installing The Underfloor Heating

Complications can occur when we are contracted to screed over another company’s piping, due to differences in how they calculate and approach work. In this case, the underfloor heating and floor insulation were installed to a degree that did not necessitate any corrections.

The main task was to resolve the access issues. A steep and narrow entry point and tight turning area by the property would make it difficult for our liquid floor screeding Liverpool to deliver the Gyvlon screed without prior planning. A standard mixer truck could lose materials on the steep climb to the property, and we needed to devise a solution to prevent that.

What We Achieved

Our liquid floor screeding Liverpool surveyors undertook a survey of the property prior to the installation date to calculate the means to deliver the Gyvlon screed. We worked closely with the supplier of the materials, who sent their transport manager to site to help assess the issue.

A plan was put together, and it was agreed that three delivery vehicles would be sent without being fully loaded. This would avoid losing material on the track up to the site. Due to this collaborative working, we were able to successfully deliver this project and screed over the underfloor heating without delay to the clients’ programme.
