Working in South Hayling
In South Hayling we cover PO11; we also cover Hayling Island, 0.5 miles away, and Emsworth.
South Hayling gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Whether your South Hayling bathroom is a small en-suite or a large main bathroom, the mat is sized to the open floor, not the whole room. If your South Hayling bathroom has a cold tiled floor and no room for a bigger radiator, an electric mat under new tiles is the simplest answer.
Supplies across most of Hampshire are 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
- Insulation boards over the subfloor, so heat goes up into the tiles rather than down into the joists or screed
- Bringing the system up to temperature gradually once the adhesive and grout have cured
- 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.
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.
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.
