    Wet underfloor heating advice for extension and existing area

    Great reply - thanks for spending the time to do this! As the concrete floor area is approximately only 15% of the total floor area maybe I shouldn't worry about this too much? Is there a system you recommend which would be more cost effective? thanks!

    Wet underfloor heating advice for extension and existing area

    Thanks Madrab, good to heard a positive, it was a couple of builders who I spoke to that didn't think it would work that well. Which system would you recommend? NuHeat LoProMax was recommended to us. Thanks!

    Wet underfloor heating advice for extension and existing area

    I guess what puts me off are people's opinions on an overlay system not being very good.

    Wet underfloor heating advice for extension and existing area

    thanks Rob, do you think it would it be possible just to have the new extension with UFH and the existing (green and yellow) with a couple of rads? Our final floor finish would be laminate or vinyl so nothing too cold under foot!

    Wet underfloor heating advice for extension and existing area

    Thanks again Rob, The extension isn't built yet. Nope 360mm is an assumption so could be incorrect! If we were to do the overlay systems would we do this throughout the yellow and green section then just standard pipework in the extension? I assume we would have a floor height difference when...

    B&Q loft boards product number change

    I've recently just boarded my loft out with these using loft legs. No problems, the grooves are a bit dodgy if you screw too close to the edges but all in all not bad at all. On tip I will give, make sure you use decent screws, I couldn't believe the difference on the second pack I bought (AVF...

    'Standard P5' vs CaberShield P5 vs Egger Protect flooring?

    Quick question... I am relaying the flooring in one of our bedrooms due to damage to the existing floorboards from woodworm. My question is, is it worth paying the extra (double) for the waterproof flooring over the standard P5 chipboard if the room has no intention of getting wet!! thanks, Dave
