The need

The underfloor heating cable had been cut. Access was limited, so the recorded work included removing grout to expose more of the cable and cutting a wooden stud to allow a new route for it.

PTX's approach

The repair stayed focused on the affected cable. PTX exposed the cable, created the new route, joined the wires with crimp connectors and taped the connectors in two layers of electrical tape. The heating was then tested.

The recorded result

The work record confirms that the cut underfloor heating cable was repaired and that the heating was tested afterward. No additional result is claimed beyond that recorded testing.

What this job helps another property owner consider

If underfloor heating stops working after a cable is damaged, the repair may involve more than reconnecting wires at the visible point. This Vancouver job required access through grout and a route through a wooden stud before the wires could be joined and the heating tested. Each property needs its own assessment.
