Working in Cleethorpes

As well as Cleethorpes itself (DN35), we survey in Grimsby, Louth and Kingston upon Hull.

In Cleethorpes, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For Cleethorpes homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. Whether your Cleethorpes 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 Lincolnshire 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

The electric mat or cable laid to the open floor, kept clear of where the WC, bath and fixed furniture will sit
A dial, programmable or smart thermostat, with the supply RCD protected, tested and certified by a qualified electrician
A check of the floor construction, the room's heat loss and where the thermostat and supply will go
A floor sensor set between the heating runs and wired back to the thermostat

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.

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.
