  • Welcome back to the Jenkins' Full Bungalow Renovation series! In this episode, we take you through the ultimate flooring upgrade that will transform our home from the ground up. Watch as we install top-notch insulation, state-of-the-art underfloor heating, and finish with a sleek liquid screed for a flawless finish.
    🔨 Insulation Installation: Learn how we enhance the energy efficiency of our bungalow with premium insulation. We'll show you the step-by-step process, ensuring a warmer, cozier home while saving on energy bills.
    🔥 Underfloor Heating: Experience the luxury of heated floors as we lay down our advanced underfloor heating system. We'll guide you through the setup, from planning and placement to wiring and testing, ensuring an even, efficient heat distribution throughout our living space.
    💧 Liquid Screed Application: Finally, watch the seamless application of liquid screed, providing a smooth and durable surface ready for our final flooring choice. We'll explain the benefits of using liquid screed and how it contributes to the overall stability and aesthetic of our floors.

    What our channel is about:
    We bought this semi-detached bungalow in August 2022 and given ourselves 3years to flip the property and sell on. We have a target budget of £70,000! Natasha is the editor and video maker, while Rhys is the builder (a carpenter by trade). We plan on doing 95% of the work ourselves to keep costs down.
    This channel is for documenting our experiences - Good or Bad. This is our first time doing anything like this with full times jobs! Can we stick within our budget? Will the building inspector pass each stage? and the biggest question...will we still be married at the end of the project? Subscribe to find out...

    brilliant videos! your floor plan looked very similar to what I am doing too so very excited to watch all your videos. i was thinking of putting in a shower tray but you might convince me to just build it!

      We are very excited too, to get all this finished 😂 hopefully you enjoy the process just as much as we have

    The liquid screed makes the place look so much bigger, don’t know if it’s because all the floors are one level now. Would be interested to hear your view’s once the UFH is up and running and comparing in to standard radiators.

      It made a Hughes difference in appearance once it was dry! And yeah we are excited to see how well it performs/ how much it costs to run 😂

    Great job guys. Too late now of course but were you aware there are 2 companies that sell seconds of that insulation. 1 in Caerphilly and another in mid Wales somewhere both deliver.

    • @Selfbuild_TheJenkins
      @Selfbuild_TheJenkins  3 місяці тому +1

      I know of the one in Caerphilly but I was under the impression that seconds are no good to pass for building control?

    Only just found this channel a few weeks ago and i look forward to every upload now! I was wondering, the diagram at the start shows type one, sand up to DPM, i have a bit of rising damp in my house, if i dig down the way you have and introduce new DPM, does ths solve the issue? or Does it need to be slotted inbetween the blocks of the house?

    • @Selfbuild_TheJenkins

      Thank you Darren, it all depends if you have a damp proof course in the block/brick work if you do now then the damp will rise up through the walls as it’s the only way to escape.
      Luckily we have a slate DPC in our walls
