Working in Omagh

As well as Omagh itself (BT78 and BT79), we survey in Strabane, Enniskillen and Cookstown.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Omagh: free survey, written quote, one team. Where a Omagh home already has a heat pump, or the heating is being altered, a wet underfloor system is worth comparing with electric. If your Omagh bathroom has a cold tiled floor and no room for a bigger radiator, an electric mat under new tiles is the simplest answer.

Most of County Tyrone 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

Bringing the system up to temperature gradually once the adhesive and grout have cured
The electric mat or cable laid to the open floor, kept clear of where the WC, bath and fixed furniture will sit
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
A check of the floor construction, the room's heat loss and where the thermostat and supply will go

Decisions to make first

Thermostat

A simple dial thermostat, a programmable one with set times, or a smart thermostat you can control from your phone.

Insulation board thickness

Thicker boards warm up faster and lose less heat downwards, but raise the floor; the right choice depends on the door threshold and the next room.

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.

Underfloor heating in Omagh: questions

What is the price of bathroom underfloor heating in Omagh?

Do you cover BT78 and BT79 in Omagh?

Yes. We cover all of Omagh, including BT78 and BT79, and nearby Strabane, Enniskillen and Cookstown. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Omagh?

Does bathroom underfloor heating in Omagh need building control approval?

Building control in Omagh 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.
