SelfBuildSmurf Posted December 2, 2025 Posted December 2, 2025 Afternoon all, Could someone advise if the loan scheme is running, or does someone have a decoiler and staple gun for sale? The lovely people at Underfloor Parts have dispatched the materials required for our UFH design so I have a few busy nights ahead! Thanks
JohnMo Posted December 2, 2025 Posted December 2, 2025 I just used my thumb, break staples off the strip and just push them in to the insulation. Just as quick
BotusBuild Posted December 2, 2025 Posted December 2, 2025 You could buy ours when it comes back. I see you're in Cambridgeshire and we're in Cornwall. I was thinking of making it a loan tool on this here hub 1
SelfBuildSmurf Posted December 3, 2025 Author Posted December 3, 2025 Thanks both, I'll have a look on Marketplace etc, failing that I'll go for the sore thumb option!
Oz07 Posted December 3, 2025 Posted December 3, 2025 Are most here doing their own ufh install then? What about manifold connections and pressurising?
BotusBuild Posted December 3, 2025 Posted December 3, 2025 I was going to do the lot, but the ASHP install plumbers did the ground floor at the same time, then came back to connect and fill the upstairs for another £250. It was a good decision.
SelfBuildSmurf Posted December 26, 2025 Author Posted December 26, 2025 I was under pressure to get PIR down, UFH installed and pressurised to get the CemFloor installed pre Xmas so I got a fella in to do it in the end. He flew through it and did a great job tweaking a few bits on site that the layout plans hadn't allowed for. It was sad, yet a relief to see it disappear under the screed! And another +1 for liquidscreedpumping.com if in the East Anglia area 👍🏼 4
Susie Posted December 27, 2025 Posted December 27, 2025 Glad you got it sorted @SelfBuildSmurf . I have the build hub UFH stapler ready to pass on to who needs it.
