Underfloor heating is, as you might guess, a type of heating system installed underneath the floor of your home. Aside from keeping your feet toasty, it’s a great way to warm up your entire space evenly. It doesn’t need much energy to work at max power, so it costs less to run than a standard heating system. It also means you won’t have to deal with bulky radiators cluttering up your space!

We pride ourselves on providing expert installation and repair services for both domestic and commercial buildings. Whether you’re snuggled up at home or hard at work, you can trust us to keep you warm and cosy all year round.
Underfloor Heating Installations
Before we get started on your installation, we’ll visit your property to assess which system is best suited to it. We’ll take the time to listen to your needs and preferences, and will install one of two systems based on them:
Underfloor Heating
We specialise in installing hydronic underfloor heating, or ‘wet’ heating systems. These use hot water pipes or tubes installed beneath the floor to circulate heated water throughout the system. The hot water is heated by a boiler or other heat source and distributed through the pipes to provide warmth to the living space.
Overfloor Heating
If you’re looking to save time and money on your installation, we also install ultra-low profile overfloor systems. These are installed on top of the existing floor, rather than beneath it. They can be easily installed without the need for any major construction work, making them a cost-effective option for retrofitting existing buildings.
Underfloor Heating Repairs
When arranging for your boiler to be serviced, we’ll work around your schedule to visit at a time and date that suits you. Not only is this more convenient for you, but it minimises potential disruption to your household or business.

Underfloor Heating
FAQs
Yes, underfloor heating is often more efficient than traditional radiator systems. Because it operates at lower temperatures, it can be more energy-efficient, particularly when paired with modern insulation and smart thermostatic controls. Additionally, UFH provides more uniform heat distribution throughout the room, eliminating cold spots.
The cost of running underfloor heating can vary depending on several factors, including the type of system (electric or hot water pipes/tubes), the insulation of the building, the energy efficiency of the heating system, and local energy prices. Overall, after the upfront installation cost, compared to traditional heating systems like radiators, it can potentially offer long-term savings through improved energy efficiency and comfort – offering value for money.
Underfloor heating is compatible with a wide range of flooring materials, including tile, stone, laminate, engineered wood, and even carpet (although some restrictions may apply depending on the carpet’s thickness and thermal conductivity). Harder flooring materials like tile and stone are particularly effective at transferring heat.
Yes, underfloor heating can be retrofitted into existing homes, but the feasibility depends on factors such as the construction of the existing floor, available space, and accessibility. Electric underfloor heating systems are generally easier to install in retrofit projects since they have lower installation requirements compared to water-based systems.
Underfloor heating can be installed in most areas of the home, including living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and bedrooms. However, it may not be recommended for areas with permanent fixtures like built-in cabinets or where heavy furniture is placed, as these can obstruct heat distribution. Additionally, it’s essential to consider the specific requirements of each room and consult with a professional to determine the most suitable heating solution.
The pipes used in underfloor heating systems is required to adhere to industry-standard DIN 4726, ensuring a projected lifespan of 50 years. Remarkably, many of these pipes can endure for well over 100 years.
