What is Screed Underfloor Heating?
Screed underfloor heating (UFH) is a durable and energy-efficient system where warm water pipes are laid over insulation and covered with a liquid screed layer. It stores and radiates heat slowly, offering even warmth and reduced energy costs.
This system is perfect for new builds, large spaces, and extensions, delivering high performance when combined with boilers or renewable heat sources like air source heat pumps.

Installation Options
We offer several installation methods based on your project needs:
Screed UFH
Pipes laid over insulation and covered with liquid screed — ideal for new builds and full refurbishments. Offers excellent heat transfer and thermal mass.
Joisted UFH
Designed for suspended timber floors — the pipes are fitted between joists, making it perfect for retrofits in older homes.
Overfloor & Low-Profile Systems
No need to raise floor levels. We use slimline panels or pre-grooved boards that sit directly over existing floors with minimal impact.
