If you know a little about building and construction, then you may well be aware that one of the many requirements for any building is that the floor should be as flat and level as possible. It seems obvious but is not something that many people take into consideration, probably because it is obvious!

If you are lucky enough to be building yourself a new home in Aylesbury or Marlow, or indeed anywhere else in Buckinghamshire, then you are no doubt considering installing underfloor heating. It is the best possible way to heat any home today, to the extent that many people who are not actually moving to a new home are nevertheless having their old radiator systems ripped out and replacing them with underfloor heating.

If you are walking down your local High Street to do the shopping, you obviously expect that the pavement will be level and flat and that there won’t be lumps and bumps, dips, or raised paving stones that could cause you to trip over. It’s a given: in fact, it is not something that most of us even think about.

Newbury in West Berkshire is a lovely market town with a population of about 42,000. It is about 25 miles south of Oxford and is also home to one of the biggest horse racing venues in the country, which holds some 31 race days every year. If you are into racing and betting, it is a must visit.
