What does a Limecrete floor look like?

 

What is a limecrete floor?  A limecrete floor is an insulated, breathable floor suitable for old properties and new builds alike.  It consists of:

  1. Recycled foam glass – a material made from recycling glass.  It is a load bearing, lightweight, non-capillary, self draining, insulative product
  2. Either limecrete screed or limecrete slab followed by the limecrete screed.  A mix of NHL5 lime, aggregate and water.

Between the layers is a geotextile, breathable membrane.

If incorporating underfloor heating, a grid is laid with pipes fixed to this before the final screed.

Once cured, from 28 days onwards, the floor is then ready to complete with a material such as stone, tile, timber or carpet of natural fibres.
