Office to Residential Conversion, Elland Road

An existing office building on Elland Road was being converted into apartments after raised access flooring was stripped out, leaving a tricky level-match to the stairwells. Standard ECO screed was laid 50 mm thick on 100 mm insulation across 1,950 m². Each 650 m² floor was completed in a day, with follow-on trades back at 48 hours.

The challenge

Conversion of an existing office building into apartments.

The building previously had raised access floorings which had been removed and the client needed a screed to level the existing concrete floor and achieve the same floor height at the stairwells.

The solution

Gyvlon ECO flowing screed was laid on 100 mm insulation at 50 mm thick to make up the difference plus greatly reducing the weight, installation time and cost compared to sand cement screed of the new floor.

Each 650 m² floor was completed in the day allowing the following on trades to be working back on the floor within 48 hrs and installing studwork after only 7 days.
