At UK Screeds, many people think of us purely as a supplier and installer of floor screeds, largely because of our name. But in fact, we are also suppliers and installers of underfloor heating systems, because they offer so many benefits.

Liquid floor screeds such as the liquid anhydrite screed that we install at UK Screeds do need the preparation work carried out to the very highest of standards, but it is not difficult, and in any case, we carry out all the preparation work for you.

When installing underfloor heating in a building, it is necessary to lay a screed on top of the heating pipes so that the final flooring can be laid on top of that. The screed does a number of jobs, and a liquid anhydrite screed is the preferred type of screed for a number of reasons. In times past, a traditional sand and cement screed would have been used, but today a liquid screed has several advantages.

If you are considering installing underfloor heating in your home in Northampton, there are a lot of advantages to it, one of which is the amount of energy you will save vis-à-vis a radiator system.

When constructing any sort of building, there are many things to take into consideration, but one of the important ones is the levelness, or otherwise, of the flooring.

Some floor metals are simply better than others when it comes to working with underfloor heating systems. Certain properties can make a floor covering good or bad for radiant heating systems, such as its thickness and the way it allows heat to pass through it and transfer up from below into your home.
