Absolutely. Underfloor heating is ideal for: Home extensions Kitchen renovations Bathroom upgrades Full refurbishments There are low-profile systems specifically designed for retrofit projects where floor height is limited.

Yes — and it’s one of the best combinations available. Underfloor heating operates at lower temperatures than radiators, making it ideal for: Air source heat pumps Ground source heat pumps Renewable energy systems This pairing improves efficiency and reduces running costs.

Yes. Underfloor heating can be installed on both ground and upper floors, using suitable systems designed for suspended floors or reduced weight requirements.

This depends on the screed type: - Traditional screed: around 1 day per mm up to 40mm, then slower drying - Liquid screed: typically faster, but still requires controlled drying Underfloor heating must be commissioned gradually after curing to prevent cracking. We manage this process correctly to protect your floor and system.

In most wet (water-based) underfloor heating systems, yes — the pipework is usually laid and then covered with screed. The screed acts as a thermal mass, helping distribute heat evenly and retain warmth for longer. However, low-profile and retrofit systems can sometimes be installed without traditional screed, depending on floor build-up, height restrictions and the project type. We’ll always advise the best solution for your property. What type of screed is used with underfloor heating? The most common options are: - Traditional sand and cement screed - Liquid (flowing) screed, such as anhydrite or cement-based liquid screeds Liquid screed is often preferred for underfloor heating because it: - Wraps tightly around the pipes - Reduces air gaps - Improves heat transfer - Can allow thinner floor build-ups We’ll specify the most suitable screed based on your system design and flooring choice.

Yes — there are low-profile systems for retrofits and full-coverage options for new builds.

Tiles, stone, polished concrete and certain wood laminate floors are great — speak to us about what suits your space.

Installation costs vary, but efficiency gains and lower running costs often outweigh the upfront difference — especially with effective insulation and heat pumps.
