    Dear Expert, Thank you for the brilliant explanation. My question is whether we can install new laminate on top of old ceramics while using a wet floor heating system. Could you please guide me on whether this would prevent efficient heating conductivity, increase energy consumption, and how it might affect moisture levels? Additionally, what steps can I take to control these factors? Best regards,

    Would it have made sense to put the pipes through out all the kitchen and put insulation below the kitchen units? That way when you fancy a kitchen refurb you wont have cold spots?

    Unfortunately not the footage was all done in Timelapse but at 09:06 minutes you can see him checking with a tape measure and adjusting those tripods Mick points out and the laser is top right of the screen on the floor. All he does is get a finished screed height from our marks we give him from our existing finished floor height. Hope this helps but happy to answer any more questions. Thanks for watching. 👍🏻

    @@mrabuilders6723 ah, was wondering where the laser was! What would you say the max liquid screed depth should be? 50mm? My floor as the insulation under the concrete slab. There is 15mm difference in floor level so i was going to lay 35mm in some areas, with a max depth 50mm.

    @@MR54TSN it’s my understanding from when I did our floor that you can go thinner with a liquid screed than a sand based screed. From memory you should be fine with a liquid screed like in this video for your depths you mentioned An exiert may correct me if I’m wrong 😂

    Hi Jeff. If that was recommended I’ve got every faith that it’s what he would have done so I’ll trust that this system didn’t need 6 bar pressure test. However, I shall ask the question and give you his answer if it’s any different. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

    Hello Tom, yes mate, it has to be done. The screed fellas do it in order to effectively turn the floor into a pond so the liquid screed doesn't flow out everywhere. It's not a DPC in its true form, it's pierced all over the place by the clips that hold the pipes in place. Hope that helps?

    Probably it is down to the customer's preference how high the floors should be. One would argue that 2400mm is the ideal amount of insulation, but hey you have to account for many other factors not just how warm it can be.
