Just wondering if it's ok to do this in sections on different days to make it easier.
Perhaps with some rebar or an expansion gap.
Thanks if you can help.

Not sure a concrete wagon can get close either.
I take it you had it delivered?

They can pump it some distance however maybe hire powered barrows or get help to shift it.
Mine was easy access with a long chute with one of those American mix as you go lorry.
Thinking back I poured concrete. Then self leveler over. I knew a builder that was supervising

Are you talking S/C screed or liquid screed?
the guys we use (S/C screed) have a machine that mixes and pumps the gear onto the room. Tow guys feed the machine whilst the other two lay it.
Well I got a price for liquid. It was about £2k pumped.
Price for sand ( I assume 3 to 1 mix?) from another company was about £400 Tamp it yourself.
I used the pump people for the foundations and it didn't go very well so I'm a bit dubious hence why I was wondering about doing it in smaller sections then I won't be at their mercy.
You don't tamp screed. You have to work it and lay it and it's a fugging tough job and a skilled job
