Working in Enniskillen

In Enniskillen we cover BT74; we also cover Omagh, 22.3 miles away, and Strabane.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Enniskillen: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Enniskillen bathroom has a cold tiled floor and no room for a bigger radiator, an electric mat under new tiles is the simplest answer. For Enniskillen homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit.

Most of County Fermanagh is supplied with soft water. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Insulation boards over the subfloor, so heat goes up into the tiles rather than down into the joists or screed
For wet systems, pipes in low-profile boards or screed connected to a manifold or single-zone kit, with any boiler work done by a Gas Safe registered engineer
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

Floor heating and towel rail

Underfloor heating warms the room; a towel rail dries towels. Many bathrooms have both, and a dual-fuel rail keeps working in summer when the boiler is off.

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.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland has no Part P, but the heating circuit should be designed, tested and certified to BS 7671, with RCD protection. Building control is not usually involved unless drainage or structural work is being done alongside it.

Is the water hard in Enniskillen?

Does bathroom underfloor heating in Enniskillen need building control approval?

Building control in Enniskillen is run by the local district council. Where approval is needed, for example for new drainage, we tell you at the survey and handle it as part of the job.

Is electric underfloor heating expensive to run in a bathroom?

Running cost depends on the heated area, the insulation under the mat, how long it runs and your electricity tariff. As an example, a 150 W per m² mat covering 3 m² draws 450 W, so two hours a day uses about 0.9 kWh. A timer and floor sensor stop it running when nobody is using the room.
