Stepping out of the shower onto a warm stone floor isn't a luxury — it's a quality-of-life upgrade we can install in any bathroom renovation.

For new bathroom builds we run hydronic underfloor pipes in the screed before tiling. For renovations we use a low-profile electric underfloor mat under the tile adhesive bed (faster, no plumbing required, similar comfort outcome).
Hydronic is more efficient and pairs with whole-home heating; electric is simpler for single-room retrofits.
New build with planned hydronic heating: hydronic underfloor (efficient, integrated). Renovation with no hydronic system: electric mat (faster install, no plumbing). Comfort outcome is similar; running cost favours hydronic.
Electric mat under tile: 1 day plus tiling. Hydronic in-screed: 2–3 days plus screed cure (7+ days) plus tiling. New-build hydronic: laid before slab pour, no extra time on critical path.
Yes — running the floor for 30 minutes after a shower dries the tiles. Many of our clients run the floor on a timer to dry the bathroom after morning use, saving on bathroom mould and humidity.
