Slade Green floor levelling — latex screed for a perfect base
LVT and laminate telegraph every bump in a subfloor. Older Slade Green slabs and modern floating screeds both need a level base — we self-level with latex to 3mm/m² tolerance before any decorative flooring goes down.

- Slade Green subfloor reality
Cottage floors often need a full ply overlay; 80s semis usually have flat chipboard.
- Underlay choice
8mm crumb is the usual call for Slade Green bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Doorway transitions
Most post-war terraces doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
Bottom line: no decorative floor hides an unlevel slab. Level first, fit second.

Concrete Floor Levelling in Slade Green — common questions
Yes — a lot of our screeding is for other fitters and small builders across Slade Green. We hand back a level, dry slab and step out.
Yes — every DA8 slab gets a hygrometer test before we screed. If moisture is above 75% RH we recommend a DPM before any decorative floor goes down.
Latex screed is walk-on in 3–4 hours, floor-fit ready in 24 hours. Standard timing on every Howbury prep-and-fit we do.
3–15mm typical. Above 15mm we specify fibre-reinforced or a specialist deep-pour screed. Most Slade Green residential slabs are inside the standard range.
