Common Questions About Heated Tile Floors

How do heated tile floors work?

Electric systems—the most popular option for Durham bathrooms—feature thin heating elements embedded in mats that are installed in thin-set mortar beneath your tiles. We use heating cables embedded in Schluter Ditra matting, which serves as both an underlayment for porcelain tiles and a heating system. These electric heating cables provide efficient and evenly distributed warmth, eliminating cold spots and ensuring a consistent temperature across the floor. Connected to a programmable thermostat, the system allows precise temperature control, timer functions, and even smartphone connectivity for ultimate convenience. Unlike forced-air heating, radiant systems offer gentle, natural warmth, creating a comfortable and evenly heated surface. We do not use a hydronic system, as the electric option provides optimal efficiency and performance.

Can heated floors be installed in my existing bathroom?

Absolutely! While heated floors are easiest to incorporate during full renovations, we've successfully retrofitted many existing bathrooms throughout Durham Region. The process typically adds only 1/2" to your floor height, making transitions to other flooring minimal. For existing bathrooms, we carefully remove your current flooring, evaluate the subfloor condition, make any necessary repairs, install the heating system, and then apply your new porcelain or ceramic tiles. The entire process typically takes 3-5 days depending on bathroom size and specific conditions. Our electricians handle all connections and controls, ensuring your system meets all electrical codes and operates perfectly.

What tile options work best with heated floors?

Both porcelain and ceramic tiles are excellent choices for heated floors, as they conduct and retain heat effectively. Porcelain offers superior durability and moisture resistance with virtually unlimited design options—including stunning wood-look, natural stone, and contemporary large-format styles. We offer premium Italian and Spanish imports alongside quality Canadian-made options in every style imaginable: marble-look, textured stone, geometric patterns, subway layouts, and much more. During your consultation, our designers will help you select the perfect tile that balances your aesthetic preferences with optimal thermal properties for your heated floor system.

What's the cost of adding heated floors?

In Durham Region, heated floor systems typically range from $16-$22 per square foot installed, with most bathroom projects totaling between $1,800-$3,600 depending on size and complexity. This includes the heating elements, controls, professional installation, and electrical work. High-quality porcelain or ceramic tiles add approximately $8-$25 per square foot (materials and installation). While heated floors represent an investment, they typically return 85-90% of their cost at resale while providing daily comfort and potential energy savings. We offer several financing options, and many clients incorporate heated floors into broader renovation projects for maximum efficiency and value.
