Hi,
We have had a screed (anyhdrite) with wet underfloor heating put down recently. After a few weeks they turned on the heating and then after a few days a small dark spot appeared, this grew in size to a 10cm elongated circle. There is metal pipe coupling directly below.
We suspected a leak...

Hi, some of the tiles in the kitchen, landing and bathrooms have grout that that loosened and fallen out and tiles are popping in various places. Mostly where the underfloor heating pipes are. Under tile is concrete.
We ripped some of the tiles out and re laid again. However the issue is still...

Hi all
Just been reading up on the above and it looks like I should have sanded the floor down a bit sooner - no one advised that it should be done after a couple of weeks

Really enjoy DIY. So much so that I am finding new things to do even if they don't need it.
Joined this forum to see if I could discuss how to make my own underfloor heating for laminate flooring or if I buy a mat, 500mm X 600mm.

I thought I'd share this project, quite a lot went into this and I think it turned out great. The floor was a bit of a mess so there was some leveling prior to fitting the insulation and underfloor heating.
This system is the new pro warm system which uses the dural cifh carrier mat and there...
