Thanks Jake.
I will do, its a 6 bedroom home that I cant find a contractor to do without me moving out for 4 weeks, so Im having to do most of it myself and splitting house into 2 and doing 2 manifolds.
4 weeks to do underfloor heating and screed in a 6 bedder. You've clearly not looked very hard... I reckon that's 3 days work. 1 day to insulate edge strip and polythene, 1 day to pipe up to manifold and 1 day to screed.

Its more work than that! The floors have been screeded at the min, so digging all that out to start! Insulation on the timber and all the floors up. I know what your getting at tho. Feel free to recommend anyone round Warwick that would do this tho, Ive rang soo many people with no real luck.

i put a calcium sulphate, hemihydrate, pump applied liquid floor screed. 40mm depth, in my house, with ufh, it's made by a german company, RTU is the company that supplies it over here in N.Ireland, there's bound to be a supplier over in your area. now i waited two years before i tiled the floors!!!:D there was all that noise going about floors lifting at that time, also to see where it would crack, there wasn't too many and i used matting over any cracks , although the main reason was getting motivated to do it:rolleyes:. i used matting over any cracks and nearly 2 years later again, no cracks have appeared, i have 7" of insulation below my floor:D used "passive house" standards for the insulation thickness.

There's a lot of anhydrite in northern Ireland these days. Most of it is from crh roadstone.

Thanks for all your help Alan.

Screedit - Only could speak to Ellie and sent her details via email
Ascus - Said would call back but hasnt (will chase today)
Midland - I spoke and sent them details back in March but never responded to that!

None of them were interested in digging the screed up, but I can do that myself fine.
