Under floor heating is one of those modern luxuries which allows us to have the sophistication of tiled flooring with what feels like the warmth of plush carpets under foot in colder months. Under floor heating is a great alternative to having radiators as providers for central heating within your home, which can often prove awkward to (re)position during a renovation. Here at Milbarn Construction we have provided many homes in Essex with under floor heating at very competitive prices.

As carpets wear easily and can be trickier to clean, many of our customers after renovating their property choose to have tiled or wooden flooring. With this often comes the risk of it being chilly under foot in those wintery months. Although rugs can sometimes solve this problem, they can too often defeat the object of choosing to have an easy to maintain, more sophisticated choice of flooring. Under floor heating gives you the option to have both whilst still keeping the house toasty. The great thing is you can also have it under carpet too.

Types of under floor heating:

• Electric under floor heating
• Water under floor heating

The pros to under floor heating:

• Underfloor heating is a high-spec and modern feature which is a great selling point for you home and also adds value to your property.
• Large systems can replace radiators giving you extra space and a clear decorative finish.
• It’s a more efficient way of heating a room due to the how the heat is distributed.
• With heat rising from the floor it slowly distributes around the rest of the room, whereas radiators rapidly heat the area immediately around them.
