Working in Gosport

We work right across Gosport — PO12 and PO13 — and in neighbouring Portsmouth and Southsea.

Across a large town like Gosport, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. For Gosport homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. Whether your Gosport bathroom is a small en-suite or a large main bathroom, the mat is sized to the open floor, not the whole room.

Water across much of Hampshire 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

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 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
Bringing the system up to temperature gradually once the adhesive and grout have cured

Decisions to make first

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.

Thermostat

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

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.

Underfloor heating in Gosport: questions

What is the price of bathroom underfloor heating in Gosport?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover PO12 and PO13 in Gosport?

Yes. We cover all of Gosport, including PO12 and PO13, and nearby Portsmouth, Southsea and Fareham. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Gosport?

Is underfloor heating enough to heat a bathroom on its own?

In a well-insulated bathroom with most of the floor open, it often is. In a small room, the bath, WC and furniture cover much of the floor, so the heated area may be too small to be the only heat source. A heated towel rail alongside is the usual answer.
