Across Ilton we work hand-in-hand with UFH installers — they lay and pressure-test the pipes, we pour around them the next day at the right depth and thermal performance.

Liquid UFH screed lets you run a thinner build-up than traditional bays — useful when ceiling heights or threshold levels are tight in Ilton renovations.

Most of our Ilton jobs sit within 30 minutes of base, so site visits stay simple and pour days run to time. Ilton sits Taunton (10 mi), and we work the surrounding villages on the same week's diary.

Right fit for Ilton rural self-builders and farms

Ilton sits rural — barn conversions, self-builds, agricultural sheds, equestrian floors. Access is usually fine, but power and water on site need confirming up front. We do that at the site visit.

Underfloor Heating Screed in Ilton — how it works

Liquid UFH screed lets you run a thinner build-up than traditional bays — useful when ceiling heights or threshold levels are tight in Ilton renovations.

We pour Cemfloor Therm liquid screed over your UFH pipes at 50mm above pipe (typically 65-75mm total over insulation), giving full pipe encapsulation, fast thermal response and a finished surface flat to SR1.

How a Ilton pour runs

  1. 1

    UFH installer fits manifold, pipes and pressure-tests to 6 bar

  2. 2

    We confirm edge insulation, DPM and pipe coverage depth

  3. 3

    Pump and level the screed with pipes still under pressure

  4. 4

    Slow commissioning of the heating — usually after 7 days, ramping per manufacturer spec

  5. 5

    Floor coverings once moisture is signed off and commissioning is complete

Specifications suited to Ilton builds

Cemfloor Therm

Liquid screed engineered for UFH — lambda 2.1 W/mK, fast response.

PIR/Phenolic insulation board

70-150mm typical depending on build regs U-value target.

Edge insulation strip

Critical around UFH zones to allow thermal expansion.

Pressure-testing kit

Pipes held at 6 bar through the pour to flag any damage immediately.

Common Ilton build questions

What if a pipe leaks during the pour?+

Pipes are held at 6 bar through the pour. Any pressure drop is flagged immediately and we stop, fix and continue — this is exactly why we keep the manifold under test.

When can I switch the underfloor heating on in Ilton?+

On Cemfloor Therm we typically start a slow commissioning cycle from day 7, ramping 5°C per day per manufacturer spec. Forcing it earlier risks cracking, so we hold Ilton clients to the schedule.

What depth of screed over UFH pipes do you recommend?+

Minimum 50mm cover above the highest pipe — usually a 65-75mm total slab over insulation. Thicker if you want more thermal mass.

Will the screed crack as the UFH heats up?+

Properly isolated at the edges and at doorway joints, no. We pour with the pipes pressure-tested and follow a controlled commissioning schedule.

Does liquid UFH screed improve EPC ratings?+

Indirectly — yes. Faster response and lower running temperatures help heat-pump COP, which feeds into your SAP/EPC. We'll share the manufacturer data your assessor needs.

Can you pour over a heat-pump system in Ilton?+

Yes — and we'd argue you should. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than gas, so the screed's thermal conductivity matters more, not less.
