It is therefore not a coincidence that costs may vary, which is influenced not only by the choice of supplier and products, but also by the region in Poland where the investment is planned. Much also depends on whether we decide to install the flooring ourselves or use the services of a professional company for this purpose. However, taking into account various cost estimates, it can be assumed that on average you have to spend PLN 100 to PLN 150 per square meter of heated area.
