Working in Warwick

As well as Warwick itself (CV34), we survey in Royal Leamington Spa, Kenilworth and Stratford-upon-Avon.

In Warwick, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For Warwick homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. Whether your Warwick bathroom is a small en-suite or a large main bathroom, the mat is sized to the open floor, not the whole room.

Most of Warwickshire 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

The electric mat or cable laid to the open floor, kept clear of where the WC, bath and fixed furniture will sit
A check of the floor construction, the room's heat loss and where the thermostat and supply will go
Resistance and insulation tests on the mat before, during and after tiling, with the readings recorded
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.

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.

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.

Underfloor heating in Warwick: questions

How much should I budget for bathroom underfloor heating in Warwick?

Bathroom underfloor heating in Warwick usually costs £700–£2,400 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Warwick really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover CV34 in Warwick?

Yes. We cover all of Warwick, including CV34, and nearby Royal Leamington Spa, Kenilworth and Stratford-upon-Avon. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Warwick?

Is underfloor heating enough to heat a bathroom on its own?

In a well-insulated bathroom with most of the floor open, it often is. In a small room, the bath, WC and furniture cover much of the floor, so the heated area may be too small to be the only heat source. A heated towel rail alongside is the usual answer.
