Underfloor heating is one of those upgrades that sounds like a luxury until you have it — and then you wonder how you managed without it. Heat rising evenly across the entire floor. No cold spots. No radiator taking up wall space. Just a warm room from the moment you step in.
Novo Plumbing installs both electric and wet hydronic underfloor heating systems across Surrey and Berkshire. We fit it as a standalone job or — more commonly — as part of a full bathroom refit. And if you're already having a bathroom done, this is the moment to do it.
The best time to install underfloor heating is before the tiles go down.
Here's the thing most people learn too late: retrofitting underfloor heating into a finished bathroom means lifting every tile, installing the system underneath, and re-tiling from scratch. That's a significant cost on top of what you've already spent.
During a bathroom refit, the floor is already exposed. Adding underfloor heating at that stage is straightforward — modest extra cost, permanent improvement, and a difference you'll notice every single morning for the next twenty years.
We always raise it at the planning stage so you can make an informed decision before the floor goes back down. Whether you add it or not, at least you'll know the cost before it's too late to choose.
Electric or wet underfloor heating — here's the honest difference.
Electric Underfloor Heating
Electric underfloor heating uses a network of heating cables or mats installed beneath the floor surface. It's quicker to install, lower in upfront cost, and ideal for single rooms — particularly bathrooms.
The system runs on a programmable thermostat and timer. In a bathroom, it costs a matter of pennies per session to run. Most people set it to come on before they get up and switch off automatically.
Wet (Hydronic) Underfloor Heating
Wet underfloor heating circulates warm water from your boiler through a network of pipes beneath the floor. Because heat is distributed across a large surface area, the water temperature needed is lower than a standard radiator — which means your boiler runs more efficiently and running costs are lower over time.
Higher upfront installation cost, but significantly more cost-effective at scale. The right choice for new builds, extensions, or whole-house installations where the floor is already being lifted.

What's included in a Novo underfloor heating installation
Underfloor heating adds value. Estate agents will tell you the same.
In premium Surrey postcodes, underfloor heating is increasingly standard in higher-value properties. It's a feature buyers notice, that agents specifically mention in listings, and that adds to perceived quality in a way that's hard to replicate with surface finishes alone.
If you're planning to sell in the next five to ten years, it's worth understanding what it adds versus what it costs — before the floor goes back down and the option is off the table.
What our customers say about underfloor heating with Novo.
"We added underfloor heating during our bathroom refit and it's genuinely one of the best decisions we made. George mentioned it early on and we nearly skipped it — really glad we didn't."
"The difference it makes to the bathroom every morning is hard to overstate. Novo installed it as part of our full refit and the whole process was seamless."
