I would be very, very interested in a video on your heating system - comfort, cost to run, cost to install, there is a lot of talk about the IR heaters and very little seems to come from people with experience living with them. Maybe you’d consider putting something together? Not your usual style, but I think others would also be interested in your take on it.
not gonna lie, I was a little skeptical with the layout, but seeing the walls up and painted, and the floor put in, I think everything works out really well. you guys did an amazing job, not just the utility area, but the whole house, and you should be really proud with the work you did!
Absolutely gorgeous. I had a feeling that your house was going to turn out, again, gorgeous. You've done an awesome job on everything. From vision to fruition. Way to go. Cheers 👌🍾🥂.
I liked the music - can you share your spotify playlist. Btw. Good job. All looks high ends. You have a tone of knowledge. Why not do detailed tutorials - might get you more viewers.
Excellent job excellent, you both are geniuses. But I still want more videos smile more. God bless peace, ba with you much love and respect.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Is this electric element thin enough, on purpose, so that you can apply the tile adhesive directly? Because other applications I have seen pour self levelling concrete first and use tile adhesive on that.
Hi, I like your work I will copy you exactly But did you put sell leveling compound first on top of wooden floor and then backer board ?pls let me know
@@shuhenarabegum7019 we didn’t as there was too many gaps on the floorboards where the self leveling would have dripped through. So I just used the tile adhesive to level the tiles afterwards
You actually got rid of that wood floor to put in a tile floor which is basically at exactly the same height? You could have built up the addition and it would have been level with the wood floor, and you would have kept the character of the old wood floor, instead of the sterilization of large tiles.
Fair play, really impressive to do the floor yourself! Great job looks awesome,, We are still building our house but I can't wait until we are ready to do the interior work! If you don't mind me asking what camera do you use? The shots of your home looks amazing, we are just starting out on TH-cam and using our iPhones to film but looking to upgrade to maybe a camera in the following months.
That’s awesome, we’d like to build a house next time as we think it would be far quicker than having to renovate around an old wonky house!!! As for camera and gear we have most of it listed in the description of the video, hope that helps? Good luck on the house build and creating videos 👌🏻
@@BARBSTER360 looks like a show home ha. as a long time follower, the anticipation to see the house complete is exciting! then what's next! lol. It is quite inspiring to see what you and Hollie have done, taught yourselves so much and the results are pretty amazing. It has given me some ideas and the urge to have a go at home renovations myself.
@@toyestevehaha we have a few things lined up with what to do next… we just have to make sure we finish the house first otherwise it will never get done lol!!
Teamwork makes the dream work :) - well done both. I'm looking to retrofit UFH in our bungalow. I'm keen to get your feedback on the price to run electric as i've heard quite a lot of consistent feedback on how expensive it is to run? Or do you have solar/battery storage to help? Regards
Unfortunately no we don’t have either battery/solar to run it so as the price of electric increases so does the price to run the electric UFH! But that’s the same with all gas/oil prices too. And we don’t have oil/gas going into our property so electric was our only option and thought UF gives a nice cosy feel!
yeah that matt is designed to be tiled straight over using flexible tile adhesive (the adhesive also has to state that it can be used with under floor heating too). Or you could use a flexible floor leveller (again one that also says for under floor heating) over the matt to give you a flat surface and then tile on top of that.
@@BARBSTER360I’m not sure if he is talking about using tile adhesive and screws and washers to install the tile backer boards into the floor boards as well as I have been told the same by Pro warm recently.
Personally I would of stuck the backer boards down and screeded over the under floor mat. You missed one big thing when laying the tiles, you never back buttered the tiles! Not doing this on large tiles causes trapped air pockets and they don’t stick properly
Electric underfoot heating isn’t suitable for heating rooms, they’re only really meant for bathrooms to make the tiles nice and warm. Also, that thermal backer board is nowhere near thick enough to insulate so you’ll end up losing a huge amount of energy through the floor. You should have insulated with rigid foam. Also, your tiles weren’t laid properly and they’ll crack and get air bubbles underneath. For the rest of the house, hydronic underfloor heating powered by an air to water heat pump would be superior in every way. Or an air to air heat pump, which would have given you the ability to cool in the summer as well as heat. Not impressed
@@benhart777 “…not impressed” 😅 we never set out to impress anyone but ourselves! Air/water heating wasn’t possible in our cortage as electric was our only option. We did everything ourselves and saved £1000s on labour costs so if our UF cost a bit more to run then that’s not an issue. Not a single tiles has popped or crack so you’re wrong with your assumption about them not being laid properly!!
I’ve watched from the start & it’s crazy to see how much the house has changed. Not too far off now guys!
We still can’t get our heads around the fact we’ve been doing this for almost 4 and a half years!

You are a very secure man to have that bathroom wallpaper-it’s so festive!
When you’ve done everything you should release a mega cut of all the bits you have done in 1 video
Yeah for sure!! We’ve already been chatting about how to condense 4 and a half years into 1 video… how long do you think the video should be!?
30 mins@@BARBSTER360
45 minutes!
@@BARBSTER360 I’d happily watch an hour long video. Just showing the best bits might make that easier to edit?

Fantastic job on the floor , love the tiled skirting 😍
The house remodeling is looking fantastic, James!!! Cant wait to see a final video!!🤩🤩
Love how your confidence has grow during the renovation. 😊
Absolutely gorgeous. I had a feeling that your house was going to turn out, again, gorgeous. You've done an awesome job on everything. From vision to fruition. Way to go. Cheers 👌🍾🥂.
Aw thank you very much we really appreciate this 👌🏻
You really are both lovely talented and industrious young people.
Thank you very much 🙌🏻 we’re currently working on the next video 🏚️
James and Hollie your house looks great
🙌🏻 thank youuuu
Great job guys, can I ask if you used a fused spur for the UFH, I thought these were required for each thermostat 👍
we have a separate ring main for each rooms UF so can turn them off independently on the fuse board
Its looking fantastic..well done!
Thank you so much

Looking very smart guys!!
How is your kitchen still so clean?
Haha we have to be honest that is ‘camera ready’ and the rest of the time it is very messy 😅

Hi where are the tiles from? They’re great
These tiles were just from B&Q! Not sure if they still do them as we ordered them quite a while ago and kept them in storage until we needed them!
Levelling clips?!
Hey guys, Is this also suitable for a flat not in the ground floor?
I’d say so, just make sure you use the insulating backer boards. We used it upstairs and downstairs in our house
I've installed also electric matting under tiles,and my electric bill was through the roof 😡
@@TheKinguskongus yes it uses electric!
Hello was it ok to put tile direct on the UFH matt
yeah that matt is designed to be tiled straight over using flexible tile adhesive (the adhesive also has to state that it can be used with under floor heating too). Or you could use a flexible floor leveller (again one that also says for under floor heating) over the matt to give you a flat surface and then tile on top of that.
Are you sure you don't want to wallpaper the wall behind the loo too?
Yup we’re sure!!
Epic!
🙌🏻
I heard electric underfloor heating is slow in heating up a room and expensive to run because of high electricity costs. Are these true?
It's twice cheaper to install, however it will cost 2-3 more than water pump underfloor heating.
WOW Guys its Looking Great. Hope Your Going To Throw A Party When Its Finished , And We Are All Invited.?
Haha if we did a party it would have to stop about 8pm as we’re so knackered from doing all this work 😂
NEVER PUT DOWN INSOLATION WITH OUT STICKING THEM, THEY WILL FLOAT ON SELF LEVELLING.
@@cbebbington2 this mat is self adhesive and is super sticky, but we did also use extra tape if needed to keep it stuck down
@@BARBSTER360 the tile backer boards you are using 100% don't come with a sticky back
@@cbebbington2 the backer boards are screwed down and/or stuck down with tile adhesive. The mat is self adhesive. Just like I explained in the video.
