Underfloor Heating & Liquid Screed in Scotland and the North of England
Getting your underfloor heating and floor screeding right starts with understanding how the different parts of your floor work together. Whether you’re building a new home, renovating an existing property or managing a commercial development, careful planning makes all the difference.
Next Level UFHS provides underfloor heating design, supply, installation and floor screeding services across Scotland and the North of England. Based in Perth, we work with homeowners, builders and contractors on heating and screeding requirements, from individual rooms to larger building projects.
With underfloor heating and liquid screed services available from the same company, you can discuss your complete floor build-up rather than treating each element as a separate consideration.
Underfloor Heating Design, Supply & Installation
Underfloor heating distributes warmth across the floor, providing comfortable, even heating without the need for traditional wall-mounted radiators. It's an option worth considering for new properties, extensions, renovations and commercial spaces.
Choosing the right system involves more than selecting heating pipes or underfloor heating kits. Floor depth, insulation, heat requirements and the intended floor finish all influence how a system should be designed and installed. Our underfloor heating services include:
– Underfloor Heating Design: Considering your property’s layout, heating requirements and floor construction to plan a suitable system.
– Underfloor Heating Supply: Providing heating systems and components, including underfloor heating kits, to suit different project requirements.
– Underfloor Heating Installation: Installing the heating system as part of the planned floor build-up, with attention to pipe layout and the surrounding floor layers.
– Underfloor Heating & Screed: Bringing heating and screeding requirements together so the proposed floor construction is considered as a whole.
Whether you’re looking for an underfloor heating specialist for a new installation or exploring options for an existing property, understanding the available floor space and construction is an important first step.
Liquid Screed & Professional Floor Screeding
A properly specified screed creates the layer needed to support your chosen floor finish. When underfloor heating is involved, the screed also plays a role in transferring warmth from the heating system into the room.
Next Level UFHS provides floor screeding and liquid screed installation services for residential and commercial projects. The appropriate approach depends on the floor structure, heating system and intended use of the space.

The Basics Of A UFH System
What Is Underfloor Heating, And How Does It Work?
Get rid of the high costs of radiators and opt for premium underfloor heating and screed.
Underfloor heating systems involve pipes circulating warm water under your floor, providing the entire room with low-maintenance and cost-effective heating.
When going through the underfloor heating installation process, we incorporate both floor heating pipes and screed to provide you with the ultimate result.
Here’s how it works: We start off by laying insulation to ensure no heat is lost and it stays with you all day. Then we install the underfloor heating pipes and finish by covering them all with the screed.

How We Work
Underfloor Heating & Screed for Different Projects
The right heating and screeding approach depends on whether you’re starting with a new floor or working around an existing one.
New Build Underfloor Heating
Building from the ground up gives you the opportunity to incorporate underfloor heating into the floor design from an early stage. Insulation, pipe positioning, screed depth and finished floor levels can all be planned alongside the wider construction work.
Our new build underfloor heating and screeding services cover the requirements of residential building projects, with full floor build-up packages forming part of the available offering.
Retrofit Underfloor Heating
Want underfloor heating without starting from scratch? Existing properties present different challenges, particularly where floor height, door clearances and the existing subfloor limit the available space.
Low-profile water underfloor heating systems may provide an option for some renovation projects. The suitability of any retrofit system depends on the property’s construction and heating requirements.
Commercial Underfloor Heating
Commercial floor installations require consideration of the building’s intended use, heating demands, floor areas and construction programme.
From offices and retail premises to wider commercial developments, underfloor heating and screeding need to fit the project’s overall floor specification. Clear planning can help contractors coordinate the different stages of the work.
ENJOY YOUR FLOOR
All that’s left to do is for you to sit back and relish in the warmth and comfort of your newly installed screeded underfloor heating system.

Planning a Complete Floor Build-Up
Underfloor heating works as part of a wider floor construction, not as an isolated product. Understanding how the different layers fit together is essential when planning an installation.
Depending on the project, the floor build-up may involve insulation, heating pipework, screed and the final floor covering. Each element has a purpose, and changes to one can affect the others.
For example, the available floor depth may influence which heating system is practical, while the chosen screed and floor finish can affect how heat passes into the room. These considerations are particularly important when balancing heating performance with existing floor levels.
By considering underfloor heating supply, installation and screeding together, you can make more informed decisions about the proposed floor construction before installation begins.

Taking it to the next level.. Alan, Gordon and team did an amazing job on our rural renovation. 250+m2 of insulation, UFH pipes and screed all laid in a week. Made a hard job look easy and had attention to detail from start to finish. Thank you!

James Spalding Google Review
Next level underfloor heating. Alan and Gordon do what only the best in their field can do. Make a hard job look easy. These guys are fast, efficient, professional and excellent at there trade. I work in the concrete industry and I have seen lots of trades tackle this type of work. I have yet to see any as good as this pair for preparing and executing a first floor underfloor heating installation and screed. I will definitely recommend Next Level Underfloor Heating and I will actively give them any of my screed enquiries I get. Well done lads and good luck. Kenny Hampton Forth valley concrete.

Alan and Gordon are excellent. Very professional, friendly and keen to help on your project. The screed was installed very professionally and the finish is fantastic. I would highly recommend Next Level Underfloor Heating & Screed Solutions and wouldn't go elsewhere for a screed in the future.
Warren Beynon Google Review
Alan and Gordon were recommended by the screed manufacturer that was specified for our extension project. They completed a 40m2 area with 12m of flush door thresholds + UFH and manifold installation. The team were great to deal with and very professional from the initial enquiry to completion of the project. The team provided recommendations and technical advice throughout the quotation stage and were the only contractor to actually visit and survey the site prior to finalising the quote. During the works, the Alan and Gordon were brilliant, taking time and effort to run through the plan for the works and made sure all protection was in place. Our requirements were quite demanding with respect to flush thresholds and floor finishes being applied directly to the screed. The end product is brilliant, exceeding our expectations. We were always worried about the screeding and potential mess / damage to large areas of floor to ceiling glazing , but this was not an issue with Alan and Gordon. Everything was protected and the place was spotless when the job was complete. Of the several trades used during our renovation and extension project, the team at Next Level have been without a doubt the best and would highly recommend them. First class work and really nice guys. Looking forward to having the team back in the near future for some further screeding works.

I found Gordon and Alan's company nextlevelufhs.co.uk via Google searching for 'Floor Leveling' and could not have got a better company to level my floors. Having watched some YouTube videos and then seeing Gordon and Alan setting up their laser and depth measuring equipment I knew I was getting very experienced professional tradesmen. My floor surfaces had been removed from the original concrete base prior to contacting them for a survey. This had left chisel gouges like the surface of the moon. The original concrete base was uneven with dips and highs. When the work was finished the floors were as flat as pancakes and level from front to back. A most desirable outcome. Reducing my stress during this time was greatly appreciated because of their helpful communication prior to and during the work. If you want the best then look no further than Gordon and Alan's company NextLevelUfhs.co.uk John Keggie https://www.nextlevelufhs.co.uk.co.uk/

Next Level recently installed 100m2 insulation and under floor heating for us in our holiday cottage. I have worked in the building industry for many years and I have found both Alan & Gordon to be thoroughly efficient and produced a first class installation from start to finish. In my day we would have described them as proper tradesmen with a real old fashioned work ethic. Normally I would worry about recommending people incase they didn’t live up to expectations but with Next Level under the stewardship of both Alan & Gordon I would have no such concerns. Gladly recommend them and their company.
Horstad Underfloor Heating Google Review
If you want a professional floor insulation, underfloor heating, and screed job done brilliantly at a cost-effective price you cannot get better than Alan and Gordan. We have struggled with our self-build, emailing, and calling companies no one bothers to call or acknowledge your emails. I called Alan on a Saturday morning; Alan and Gordan surveyed our site despite it being over 1 hours drive away from them and got back with a quote quickly. They completed our job last week, if everyone worked this way our experience in renovation would be a positive exciting adventure. Alan and co are very knowledgeable, they took time to get everything just so. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you so much next level. You are next level!
Sheridan Bale Google Review
Screed and underfloor heating can be a daunting thing but Alan & Gordon are top class. Explained everything clearly and knew the answer to every question instantly making the process stress free. The original floor was in terrible shape, I wasn’t sure we could even screed it. But with the skill and knowledge of Alan & Gordon they left the house perfectly level.
Lewis Ross Google Review
Alan, and the team, are absolutely fantastic. They removed a system that had been poorly fitted, and replaced it with a brand new water system. Conscientious, honest, tidy, and came to my rescue when my flooring guy put a nail through the system 🙄. Next level are one of the few great trades-teams, out there.

Couldn't be happier with the quality of work and the service provided on my new build. This company is easy to deal with, friendly and knowledgeable. First class work.
colin morgan Google Review
Very flexible and helpful in what was a relatively small domestic job. Worked well with us to manage the technical interface between their own scope and our central heating installation company. Tidy, reliable, turned up when they said etc. Would have no hesitation to use again or to recommend to someone. Thanks.
Simon Gourlay Google Review
We chose Gordon and his team to do our floor insulation, underfloor heating and Screed. To say they did a great job would be an understatement! Gordon and Ryan arrived first thing on the morning of the install and started their craft right away. These guys were true professionals from start to finish. We have a lot to do for the home renovation still, but this piece of the puzzle was a very important one (so we could continue on with stairs and all other fixings on the ground floor). I highly recommend Next Level UFHS if you’re looking for the absolute best job in all of Scotland!!
Patrick Anderson Google Review
Absolutely first class installation from Gordon and the team at Next Level. From the start and throughout, the service was excellent. Queries were answered almost immediately and nothing was too much trouble. On site, the guys were super-efficient, friendly and professional – and even finished ahead of the expected timeframe. Since then, our other builders have all commented on the level of work – respect indeed! We can't recommend Next Level highly enough and our thanks once again for a superb job.
Katie Izat Google Review
Excellent Service. Gordon and his colleagues, were very easy to communicate with and understood my needs and requirements precisely. All the work was carried out promptly on schedule to a very high standard on what I believe to have been very difficult surface to work with. Highly recommend there service and expertise.
Hallum Cowling Google Review
We had Next Level UFH and Screed Solutions come and give us a quote for UFH and screed. Comunications were excellent and the quote was very competative so we decided to proceed with the installation in October of this year. It will be easier to rate them as follows:- 1- Workmanship and work ethic-Exceptional 2-Speed of installation-Exceptional 3-Communication skills-Exceptional It is a rare thing these days to find such a company that takes ALL of the stress away from the customer and puts your mind at ease. Our second fix joiners and electricians were very impressed especially with the work ethic, speed and quality of workmanship. We would not hesitate to recommend Gordon and the guys to anyone who wants UFH installed.
David Middlemiss Google Review
Next Level recently installed underfloor heating pipes and screed to our self-build. After a number of frustrating and unsatisfactory dealings with other trades people, it was such a pleasure to deal with a professional, efficient and friendly company. Alan and his team delivered on their promises from start to finish. They turned up when they said they would, did a first-class job laying both the pipes and the screed, and communicated well with us before, during and after the job was completed. It was clear to see that all of the team take huge pride in their work. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anyone. Very competitively priced too!

We have worked with Alan & Gordon in the early days of their business getting started. Over the last 2 years we have worked with them on some fantastic jobs. This varying from commercial to residential properties. They have both been an absolute pleasure to work with.

Thank you for using us and show casing the material we supply to such a high standard.
Grange Quarry Google Review
Absolutely excellent service from Alan, Gordon and Ryan, right from initial visit and advice. They prepped the pre-insulated 180sqm floor over multiple rooms and fitted all the heating pipe and manifold in two days. They pumped in the Cemfloor screed on third morning and it was all done in under three hours. Amazingly neat job, super flat finish, hard enough to walk on after 24hrs (despite being mid February and quite cold). Highly recommended and stress free!
Reuben Welch Google Review

FAQs Our Clients Ask Us
Most common question we get from our underfloor heating and floor screeding clients in Scotland
Underfloor heating works by circulating warm water through a network of pipes and heat pumps beneath your screeded floor. Once installed, we provide a smart thermostat, allowing you to control when the heating turns on and off and to set your preferred temperature.
Screed is a thin layer of cement applied to the floor to remove any unevenness and create a smooth, insulated and level surface. It is used in a variety of construction projects but is particularly useful after the installation of underfloor heating systems.
Floor screeding has its own functions for underfloor heating to maximise its efficiency. It helps conduct and distribute the heat evenly, offers a protective layer for the pipes, and removes any floor differences.
With Next Level, you don’t have to look for suppliers! Our underfloor heating company offers the full package to any house local to Scotland. You don’t have to search for ‘underfloor heating supplies near me’ either! We provide them as well as the installation. So you can sit back and relax while we get the job done.
You might expect underfloor heating to rack up high costs in your energy bills, but the truth is that it’s actually highly cost-effective. It’s actually 40% cheaper to run a wet underfloor heating system than any other household device like radiators, washing machines, kettles, and electric showers.
Absolutely, underfloor heating is better than radiators! With Next Level’s underfloor heating, you can easily replace radiators with underfloor heating to enjoy many benefits. Our advanced technology provides even heat distribution, reduces heat loss, and creates a warm, comfortable atmosphere in every room.
