Working in Great Yarmouth
We cover every part of Great Yarmouth, including NR29, NR30 and NR31, and nearby Norwich (18.2 miles) and East Dereham (33.8 miles).
In Great Yarmouth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether your Great Yarmouth bathroom is a small en-suite or a large main bathroom, the mat is sized to the open floor, not the whole room. We check door thresholds in Great Yarmouth homes at the survey, because underfloor heating and new tiles raise the floor slightly.
Water across much of Norfolk is very 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
- Bringing the system up to temperature gradually once the adhesive and grout have cured
- A floor sensor set between the heating runs and wired back to the thermostat
- Resistance and insulation tests on the mat before, during and after tiling, with the readings recorded
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.
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.
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.
