We were asked to provide a quote for a large building project where the installer was fitting underfloor heating (UFH) across a large 143m2 floor area. This space was spread through several rooms, each of which would have a different type of floor finish, but the existing concrete floor was being retained throughout.
The luxury renovation of a stunning property in Lancashire was the home of a recent project for Continal Underfloor Heating. We were asked to quote to supply the underfloor heating (UFH) for a 110m2 floor area as part of the complete renovation of the home, which would cover bedrooms, bathrooms and living rooms alike.

The customer was looking for a high-end finish on the project to reflect the period charm and character of the former barn, and as a result they wanted a range of finishes including hardwood floors, tiles in the bathrooms, and carpet in the bedrooms.
Newbuild properties are typically built to extremely tight timeframes, with multiple trades working around each other within the same space to get the building finished on time and, just as importantly, within budget.
Great customer service and high-quality products are the ultimate goal for any supplier. A recent renovation project in the coastal town of Bude is a great example of how Continal Underfloor Heating is able to provide both, supporting our customers at every stage of the project and supplying a wide range of products that suit any installation.
One of the continuing myths surrounding the installation of UFH in existing buildings is the issue of raising floor heights, which some still believe are a barrier to a successful installation unless the homeowner is prepared to dig up an existing floor to create the additional space, but this is simply not the case.
Our customer needed support from an UFH supplier that could provide detailed CAD designs on how to adjust the system to accommodate these different levels. He also wanted to use a flexible pipe designed specifically for UFH systems, so it would be easy to fit without any risk of kinks or issues delaying the installation.
As part of the property’s refurbishment, a 55m2 section of the ground floor needed to have UFH installed, with a tiled floor to be laid on top as part of the new lounge.
