That’s a fair question and is one that we get asked quite a lot at UK Screeds. As long-time installers of underfloor heating we are obviously biased, but for good reason, so we will take a little time to explain why you should consider it.

Well, well! Summer has finally arrived! As we write this, it is June 25^th and at long last the sun is out and it is actually warm. As in: you can go outside without a sweater or jumper on! Who would have thought it?

When constructing a new building there are many different things that need to be taken into consideration. In fact, the list is almost endless. Just one of them is the fact that the floor surfaces need to be flat and level. This may sound obvious, but in fact there are some methods that can produce a better result than others.

Poured liquid screeds were practically made to quickly soak up and evenly distribute radiant warmth across your floors. That is why it is the best screed for underfloor heating.

Myth #1: Latex levelling is just for small areas

This is probably the biggest myth of them all. Latex floor levelling compounds are awesome for patching up little cracks or worn spots in a corner. But thinking that’s all they’re good for? Oh no, you’re way off base there!

Think about it – those cheap liquid screed blends rely on basic construction materials and loose manufacturing standards to hit those rock-bottom prices. But that penny-pinching comes at the cost of overall quality and consistency.

Okay, first off – let’s talk about the biggest perk of underfloor heating for carpets. It is like walking on clouds.

You want your home to feel nice and warm, right? Underfloor heating is the best flooring to get that cosy feeling! While old-school radiators and air vents have been around forever, underfloor heating has become super popular lately. At UK Screeds, we’re experts on this stuff, so read all about it in this blog!

Before anything, here is why underfloor heating is the best option:

1. Saves Money: It’s more energy-efficient. That means lower bills for you!

2. Even, Consistent Warmth: No more hot and cold spots. Just a nice, even blanket of toastiness wherever you roam.

3. Fits Any Style: You can have it under tiles, wood floors, you name it! Your style, your choice.

4. More Space: No bulky radiators eating up your walls. More room for activities!

Liquid screed provides excellent insulation to help regulate temperatures. It allows underfloor heating systems to work their best too. Plus it protects against moisture creeping up and acts as a sound barrier between floors.
