Pick the guide for your floor below. Each one covers what to buy, how to prepare the subfloor, how to lay the ribbon and what to check before the floor goes on top. Planning and laying the mats is a job most competent DIYers can handle in an afternoon. The one part you must not do yourself is the final electrical connection. That has to be made by a qualified electrician, working to UK Part P and BS 7671. Every guide repeats that rule, because it matters.
