Screed and prep across SE18
Prep-only levelling for other fitters and builders across SE18 — we screed, moisture-test and hand back a level, dry slab ready for whatever floor they're laying.
What concrete floor levelling in Woolwich actually involves
Prep-only levelling for other fitters and builders across SE18 — we screed, moisture-test and hand back a level, dry slab ready for whatever floor they're laying.
Arsenal conversions have thick concrete slabs — dead-flat and ideal for glue-down LVT.
"Prep-only screed handover — the other fitter said it was the flattest base he'd worked on this year." — SE18 trade
- Latex screed for 3–15mm level changes
- Fibre-reinforced screeds for cracked slabs
- Full moisture testing before pour
- Ready for LVT, laminate, vinyl or wood
Three things that decide a subfloor prep fit in Woolwich
- Stair nosings
Older Woolwich stairs often have shallow treads — we re-cut grippers rather than force a standard kit.
- Doorway transitions
Most royal arsenal apartments doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
- Underlay choice
8mm crumb is the usual call for Woolwich bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
Bottom line: no decorative floor hides an unlevel slab. Level first, fit second.

Concrete Floor Levelling in Woolwich — common questions
Yes — a lot of our screeding is for other fitters and small builders across Woolwich. We hand back a level, dry slab and step out.
Yes — every SE18 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 Royal Arsenal prep-and-fit we do.
3–15mm typical. Above 15mm we specify fibre-reinforced or a specialist deep-pour screed. Most Woolwich residential slabs are inside the standard range.
