DeeJunFan Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Hi Guys, I'm thinking of going with Sand and Cement screed and was asked if i was getting it done before putting the windows in. I wasn't planning to, as i was hoping to leave the screed for another few months. Any thoughts? Is it ok to get the windows in first. I was assuming a screed pump would be used and could get access through any doorway Cheers Damian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan52 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Never seen a block house get screeded before the windows went in, near one of the last jobs to be done. You need all your first fix plumbing and electrics in so if there are any in the floor they get buried in the insulation. The hose from the pump is only a ft wide so will go through a window never mind a door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeJunFan Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 Thats what i was thinking, But my brother in law used to work on building sites in London in the 70s and he had my wife convinced it had to be done before the windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Was it something to do with allowing ventilation for drying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeJunFan Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 No, the theory was you wouldn't be able to access the rooms to get the screed in 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
