• Yeah it adds up, it was £30k for the units...

    We have a full wet system, floor was a bit of a nightmare. when the builders dug it up it was 1/2 suspended, 1/2 concrete. Everything got dug out and a new concrete base was laid. All in the floor cost us an extra few £k with all the prep. But we had no idea until we started what we would see. We also had to put in a full steel frame as typical victorian build means its just spread foundations...Now though the kitchen is one of the warmest rooms in the house. It was a heat sink previously, 3 external walls with no insulation meant that was damn cold (single digits one winter). Along with the floor the ceiling got insulated as well as the new doors providing more insulation. Add in the UFH and the units on each side and its toasty...

  • Hmmm that’s interesting. As we’re doing an all out of the house, I’m going to look into getting the floor up.

    The plaster is coming off anyway got a damp proofing injection.

    The list of extras for our builder continues to grow.
