Not getting into an argument with you.... That's pointless The physics of it all are simple - heat lost via ceiling is around 45% (depending on which gauge you use). Heat lost via walls is around 20% (depending on which gauge you use). Heating a room with an adequate radiator is faster. Using...

Put it this way, noting that this is a bathroom and you'll only be in there for maybe 25mins at a time max, the under floor heating will take how long to heat the room up? With the insulation in the walls, this will be sped up but how much quicker would it heat up? Whereas if you had ample loft...

You must have access to the roof somewhere in the house? If you're looking to extend into the roof, you'll need access to it anyway? Otherwise, as endecotp already said, put a hatch in - easy enough job to do and will cost you £30 - £50 for a fully functional loft hatch.

Surprised that the bathroom fitter didn't advise this him/herself. If the floors are coming up anyway, I'd suggest fitting a radiator with the correct rating for the size and use of the room (note towel rails are not radiators - they will not always heat a bathroom adequately). It's a nice...

An obvious question, but are there any cracks on any wall?

I doubt any water is seeping in from the top - you've got a row of tiles under the top row of bricks which is there to stop any water seeping downwards. Most likely a break in a seal somewhere. Do you have pictures from the inside so that we can see the extent of the damp and where it is?
