Custom systems for every property type

Every building has unique construction and heating requirements, which is why we offer a comprehensive range of UFH options. For existing properties and renovations where floor height is a constraint, we frequently recommend low-profile systems that install quickly over existing floors with minimal buildup. In new builds and extensions, our screeded systems provide powerful, long-term performance by embedding the pipes into a thermal mass. For traditional or suspended timber floors, we install specialised systems that sit between the joists. We conduct a full assessment to ensure we recommend the most suitable, high-quality system for your needs.

Seamless integration with renewable technology

One of the greatest advantages of underfloor heating is its perfect compatibility with renewable heating systems, such as air source heat pumps and solar panels. UFH operates most effectively at the lower water temperatures produced by these modern systems, dramatically increasing overall energy efficiency. By combining these technologies, our clients benefit from significantly reduced running costs and often qualify for government incentives or grants. As building performance experts, we manage the entire process, ensuring smooth installation and advising on how your new UFH integrates flawlessly with your current or new energy setup.

Approved installer of Nu-Heat

We are proud to be an approved installer of Nu-Heat, one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of underfloor heating systems. With access to their full product range and technical resources, we can offer tailored solutions that meet the specific needs of your project—whether it’s a single room, a full home, or a commercial space.  

 

Underfloor heating works by distributing heat evenly beneath the floor, eliminating the need for radiators and creating a more comfortable, consistent indoor environment. UFH is energy-efficient, discreet, and compatible with most types of flooring, including tile, engineered wood, vinyl, and even carpet.

Choosing the Right System for Your Property 

Every property is different, and that’s why we install a wide range of UFH systems suited to all floor constructions and building types. Here are some of the most common options we provide:  


Low-Profile Systems (Overfloor Solutions)

Low-profile UFH systems are ideal for retrofitting in existing properties, particularly during renovations where the floor height needs to be kept to a minimum. These systems are designed to sit directly over existing floors with minimal buildup—some are as thin as 15–18mm. They are quick to install, offer fast heat-up times, and avoid the need for significant excavation or construction. We often recommend these systems in kitchen upgrades, conservatories, or where height restrictions apply. 

Screed Systems (For New Builds and Extensions)

Screeded UFH systems are most commonly used in new builds or extensions, where the heating pipes are embedded into a solid layer of screed. This type of system is highly efficient, as the screed acts as a thermal mass, gradually releasing heat and maintaining warmth for longer. While installation takes a little more planning due to drying times, it’s a cost-effective and powerful solution for larger spaces and long-term performance. 

Suspended Timber or Joisted Floor Systems

In older properties or those with timber floors, we install specially designed UFH systems that sit between the joists. These can include aluminium spreader plates that enhance heat distribution or pre-routed panels that are fixed between the floorboards. These systems are ideal for upstairs rooms or period homes, and we take care to install them with minimal disruption to the structure of your floor.

No matter your property type or project size, we’ll carry out a full assessment and recommend the most suitable system. We can also advise on floor coverings, insulation requirements, and how to integrate your new UFH with your existing heating setup—or a renewable energy system such as an air source heat pump or solar panels.

Seamless Integration with Renewable Energy  

UFH pairs exceptionally well with modern renewable energy systems. We specialise in air source heat pumps and solar panel installations, which when combined with UFH, can significantly reduce your running costs and carbon footprint. These systems operate at lower temperatures, making them the perfect match for underfloor heating. As a result, many of our clients enjoy greater energy efficiency and qualify for available government incentives or grants.
