Working in Camberley
In Camberley we cover GU15 and GU16; we also cover Sandhurst, 2 miles away, and Farnborough.
In Camberley, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For Camberley homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. We check door thresholds in Camberley homes at the survey, because underfloor heating and new tiles raise the floor slightly.
Water across much of Surrey 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
- A floor sensor set between the heating runs and wired back to the thermostat
- Bringing the system up to temperature gradually once the adhesive and grout have cured
- Insulation boards over the subfloor, so heat goes up into the tiles rather than down into the joists or screed
- 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.
Floor finish
Tiles and stone pass heat through well. LVT and vinyl can work, but check the maximum floor temperature the flooring maker allows.
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.
