What latex screed fitting in Woolwich actually involves
Fast-cure latex is the standard prep for Woolwich residential and commercial subfloors that need levelling on a tight schedule. Poured, floated, walk-on in 3 hours, floor-fit ready in 24.
Arsenal conversions have thick concrete slabs — dead-flat and ideal for glue-down LVT.
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.
- Fast-cure latex screed for tight programme schedules
- Two-part fibre screed for high-traffic slabs
- Handover moisture certificate for other fitters
- Priming and DPM included where required

Latex Screed Fitting in Woolwich — common questions
Weeks — the screed is stable once cured. We routinely screed a Woolwich slab and come back for the fit 5–10 days later without any surface prep.
Yes — we hand over a level, primed, dry surface with a moisture certificate. Standard prep handover for SE18 trade.
Yes — where the moisture test shows above 75% RH we install a liquid DPM before the screed. Standard on Royal Arsenal ground-floor slabs.
Sand-cement takes days to cure; latex takes hours. For a Woolwich retail refit or a home renovation on a schedule, latex is the only realistic option.
