Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Kirkintilloch: free survey, written quote, one team. Whether your Kirkintilloch bathroom is a small en-suite or a large main bathroom, the mat is sized to the open floor, not the whole room. For Kirkintilloch homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit.
Water across much of Greater Glasgow is soft. 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
- 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
- Insulation boards over the subfloor, so heat goes up into the tiles rather than down into the joists or screed
- A floor sensor set between the heating runs and wired back to the thermostat
- A dial, programmable or smart thermostat, with the supply RCD protected, tested and certified by a qualified electrician
Decisions to make first
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.
Floor finish
Tiles and stone pass heat through well. LVT and vinyl can work, but check the maximum floor temperature the flooring maker allows.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Scotland has no Part P. Underfloor heating added during a straight bathroom refit rarely needs a building warrant on its own, but it must be installed, tested and certified to BS 7671 with RCD protection.
