Working in Sutton in Ashfield
As well as Sutton in Ashfield itself (NG15 and NG17), we survey in Kirkby in Ashfield, Mansfield and Mansfield Woodhouse.
Homes in and around Sutton in Ashfield vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For Sutton in Ashfield homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. If your Sutton in Ashfield home has a suspended timber floor, insulation boards under the mat stop heat disappearing into the void below.
Most of Nottinghamshire has hard water. 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
- Insulation boards over the subfloor, so heat goes up into the tiles rather than down into the joists or screed
- 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
- 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
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.
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.
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.
