Liverpool, UK. October 27th 2025 – A new on-demand liquid screed delivery service is set to reshape how flooring contractors, builders, and underfloor heating specialists across Merseyside, Wirral & The North West of England source and install screed.
Spotmix Ready Mixed Concrete Ltd, a long-established volumetric concrete supplier based in Merseyside, has announced the launch of its precision liquid screed service – offering trade customers a “pay only for what you use” model that slashes waste, reduces site delays, and protects contractor margins. Supported by leading screed technology supplier Longfloor, the service is available immediately to domestic and commercial contractors across the region.
Led by Spotmix’s Head of Operations, James Hunter. Spotmix are positioning this new service to solve a long-standing issue in the construction supply chain: inconsistent screed quality, inaccurate delivery volumes, and the financial impact of over-ordering.
“Too often, contractors are forced to guess volumes and over-order to avoid shortages, which leads to unnecessary cost and material waste,” says James. “With our liquid screed solution, you get exactly what you need, when you need it – no more, no less.”
Screed Shortages, Site Delays and Shrinking Margins
In the construction environment, poor screed logistics can derail project timelines and eat into profit. Traditional ready-mix screed deliveries are often rigid in volume and delivery slots, making them ill-suited for the unpredictable nature of flooring and heating installations. Contractors either risk under-ordering and halting progress, or over-ordering and absorbing the cost of unused material.
Spotmix has identified three common issues plaguing trade professionals in Merseyside, Wirral & The North West of England:
- Inflexible Ordering: Pre-ordered volumes rarely match exact site requirements.
- Delivery Delays: Missed slots or late arrivals cause knock-on delays for subtrades.
- Material Waste: Over-ordering leads to disposal costs and environmental impact.
With the region’s construction sector under growing pressure to reduce emissions and improve efficiency, contractors are demanding more innovative and agile supply options.
A Smarter Screed Supply Model Built for Site Realities
The Spotmix liquid screed delivery service offers a flexible supply model designed around the realities of site-based decision-making. Developed in collaboration with Longfloor, the UK’s leading provider of free-flowing cement based screed technology, Spotmix’s new service is underpinned by four key principles:
- Volumetric Precision: Screed is mixed on-site to the exact quantity required, reducing over-ordering and eliminating material wastage.
- Guaranteed Quality: Supported by Longfloor’s high-performance cement based screed formulations, every batch meets strict flow, strength, and drying standards.
- On-Time, On-Demand Delivery: Spotmix’s modern fleet of volumetric trucks enables same-day or scheduled delivery with pinpoint accuracy.
- Trade-Centric Pricing: Contractors are billed only for the screed used on-site, improving cashflow and protecting project margins.
With this approach, Spotmix is offering a level of logistical control that traditional screed suppliers can’t match – particularly valuable for flooring contractors working on tight schedules or reactive fit-outs.
Specially Developed Volumetric Fleet
At the heart of the service is Spotmix’s fleet of specially designed Bay-Lynx volumetric trucks, engineered to deliver not volumetric concrete, but high-performance cement-based liquid screed. Through an innovative design of the hoppers and feed systems, these units can mix and pour liquid screed directly on site with the same precision and flexibility as volumetric concrete. This unique approach allows contractors to benefit from volumetric accuracy, on-demand mix control, and rapid site turnaround – all without compromising screed quality
Volumetric Supply on the Rise in the UK Screed Market
The timing of Spotmix’s launch aligns with broader trends in the UK building materials sector. Volumetric delivery, once the domain of concrete suppliers, is rapidly gaining traction in liquid screed applications due to its flexibility and sustainability benefits.
According to data from the Mineral Products Association, volumetric concrete usage has grown by 18% year-on-year since 2020, with liquid screed now representing a significant share of that increase. Meanwhile, rising landfill taxes and stricter environmental auditing are pushing contractors to eliminate unnecessary waste, making on-demand supply models more attractive than ever.
Spotmix anticipates that its liquid screed service will be especially popular with underfloor heating installers, who often require precise pours in complex layouts with minimal notice. The ability to dial in volumes on-site and pour directly from the delivery truck means fewer site bottlenecks and faster handover to finishing trades.
“We’re interested in working smarter – not harder”
“The future of supply is not just about what we deliver, but how” – says James. “We’re giving trades control over the screed process, so they can work faster, smarter, and cleaner.”
James believes the service will set a new benchmark for screed reliability across the Northwest.
“We’ve invested heavily in both equipment and training to make sure every pour is flawless. Supported by Longfloor’s technical expertise, we’re confident this will become the go-to screed option for serious trades in the region.”
