Having lived in a heat stealing flag stone floor cottage for years, I'
determined to do something about our 'new' house, which has flags i two rooms. First I'll remove the ugly 1950s lino stuff that was poure over to about 1/4" and does provide some insulation but looks hideous Then what?
The plan is to mark for identification, then take up most of the flag with a mini digger, dig down a further X? inches, lay a plastic dpc lots of insulation / say 4" celotex or similar, bed plastic underfloo heating pipes in cement and somehow... bed the flags back in on top an achieve through more luck than judgement a flat surface. Sounds a bi dubious doesn't it. Your experience welcome!
Any general comments on underfloor heating also welcome
