Working in Sandhurst
We cover every part of Sandhurst, including GU47, and nearby Crowthorne (1.6 miles) and Yateley (1.9 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Sandhurst: free survey, written quote, one team. We check door thresholds in Sandhurst homes at the survey, because underfloor heating and new tiles raise the floor slightly. If your Sandhurst bathroom has a cold tiled floor and no room for a bigger radiator, an electric mat under new tiles is the simplest answer.
Water across much of Berkshire is hard. Hard water leaves white marks on dark grout and gloss tiles, so matt finishes and stain-resistant grout are the practical choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A floor sensor set between the heating runs and wired back to the thermostat
- Bringing the system up to temperature gradually once the adhesive and grout have cured
- Resistance and insulation tests on the mat before, during and after tiling, with the readings recorded
- A check of the floor construction, the room's heat loss and where the thermostat and supply will go
Decisions to make first
Electric or wet
Electric is cheaper to install and quick to lay in one room. Wet costs more upfront but is usually cheaper to run where it is fed by a gas boiler or heat pump.
Mat or loose cable
Mats are quickest on square, open floors. Loose cable is easier to route around awkward shapes, pipe boxing and a curved shower area.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new circuit for underfloor heating is notifiable under Part P, and so is connecting it to an existing circuit in a room with a bath or shower. The electrician either self-certifies through a competent person scheme or the work is notified to building control.
