Bartley Green gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Bartley Green homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. If your Bartley Green home has a suspended timber floor, insulation boards under the mat stop heat disappearing into the void below.
Water hardness varies across the West Midlands: some supplies are soft, others moderately hard or hard. Mid-tone grout and matt tiles hide the odd water mark better than dark grout and high gloss. 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
- Insulation boards over the subfloor, so heat goes up into the tiles rather than down into the joists or screed
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.
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.
