    Frustrated with in-floor heat quoted.

    Not easy to find anyone wants to work these days!! Had two local contractors actually come view the site, then disappear from face of earth. Labor intensive? Not big enough job to make worthwhile? Who knows, they’re scratched of possibilities list. Found young man willing to do side work, he...

    Frustrated with in-floor heat quoted.

    My wife was scrambling to convince me in floor not needed and this was an option she showed me. I have my heart set on the infloor. She has good argument as I will be in wheelchair not standing on concrete, also not spending hours upon hours out there. Since the stroke I need assistance with...

    Frustrated with in-floor heat quoted.

    Thank you all. Finally reached out to a former coworker, see if he knows anyone interested in making few bucks to put system in. He doesn’t like the job for himself as it too much for knees. So if I can get parts rounded up in couple weeks time, we may have a good chance get er done. Yes aware...

    Frustrated with in-floor heat quoted.

    Parts and install of the infloor system. Insulation, Pex, connections, boiler or water heater, etc. Concrete work separate. That should be around 8500. The quote for heat was more than paid to have entire barn built. Reference was to when looking up boilers etc, always states an efficiency...
