Case Studies That Showcase Real Expertise
At Clockwork Screed, every project presents its own set of challenges and opportunities. We’ve worked with homeowners, businesses, and developers across the North West, delivering flooring solutions that are as practical as they are dependable. Here’s a closer look at some of our most notable projects—what made them unique, how we approached them, and what the results were.
1. Ribchester New Build: Screed and Insulation Done Right
The Challenge:
A new build in Ribchester needed both liquid screed and poured floor insulation to support underfloor heating and ensure energy efficiency.
Our Solution:
We started by laying poured insulation to create a solid thermal barrier. Then, liquid screed was poured over the top, flowing around the heating pipes and into every corner. This gave a perfectly level surface, ideal for any type of final flooring.
The Result:
The homeowner now enjoys a warm, energy-efficient home with a floor that’s ready for whatever comes next. The screed and insulation have helped keep heating costs down and comfort up.
2. Prenton, Birkenhead: Underfloor Heating with Liquid Screed
The Challenge:
A domestic customer in Prenton was installing underfloor heating and wanted a smooth, modern floor finish.
Our Solution:
After the heating pipes were laid, we poured liquid screed over them. The screed’s self-levelling properties ensured even coverage and excellent heat transfer.
The Result:
The floor was ready for any finish, and the homeowner appreciated the seamless result and quick turnaround.
3. Wigan Civic Centre: Three Floors of Liquid Screed
The Challenge:
Wigan Civic Centre needed new flooring across three busy public floors, with minimal disruption to staff and visitors.

Yum Cha Restaurant needed a new floor that could withstand the rigours of a busy kitchen and dining area, with minimal disruption to service.

What Our Clients Say
One recent review on Yell.com sums it up:
“Dan took the initial enquiry and has been fantastic throughout. He's polite and a friendly chap, and the whole team was amazing. The liquid screeding job they carried out was super, they came on time as promised and left the site nice and tidy (they even jet washed the neighbour’s car!) It has been a pleasure to do business with them, and I will definitely be using them again on the next project.”
