Cheers @ToughButterCup I work in the construction industry so understated the process and requirements but I don't work with houses, extensions etc so am trying to understand the feasibility of having a concrete floor over an existing cellar in a 160yr old house. I would like the same floor finish throughout, on the same level - I guess I'm trying to suss out if it's possible / cost prohibitive. I'll make contact with some Structural Engineers and see what their thoughts are. Cheers

No particular reason for ufh other than concrete is cold and it frees up wall space. In removing the original floor I'm imagining I'm also going to need to remove the joists and introduce a suitable substrate at the right level to allow the concrete floor to be built up to the required level... Does this sound feasible?

Hi, as the title suggests this is my first post having stumbled across this forum - be gentle! We've been renovating our Victorian house for a couple of years and are planning a rear extension to maximise access to the garden. We'd like to incorporate the footprint of one one the existing downstairs rooms into the extension (creating and L-shaped space) , we would like to have the same floor finish through the entire space and would like polished concrete with under floor heating if possible. My query is how feasible it will be to have a concrete floor in the existing section as the floor is over the cellar so may present structural issues as well as issues with levels. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of how we might go about achieving this? Cheers!
