Bedroom Flooring in Newport

A bedroom floor is walked on barefoot, heard from below and rarely spilt on, so the decision is warmth, sound and budget rather than water resistance: laminate, engineered oak and rigid vinyl all serve it. In Newport 83% of homes are houses, most of them terraced houses (31%), so the questions are the subfloor and the underlay rather than impact sound.

Bedroom in Newport

Bedroom flooring in Newport: what the housing says

The Newport district counts 66,054 households in the 2021 census, and the mix of houses and flats in that count is what decides how a bedroom floor is specified here.

Semi-detached houses are 31% of the Newport stock, and a semi's bedrooms are timber floors over the rooms downstairs, with the small third bedroom over the hall. Laminate is the floor most often laid through all three in Newport, on an underlay chosen for sound; an engineered board goes into the main bedroom where an owner wants oak.

Terraced houses are 31% of the homes in Newport, and the bedrooms of a terrace in Newport are on a suspended timber floor above the living room. A floating laminate or an engineered board over an underlay with an impact-sound figure keeps footsteps out of the room below; the old boards are screwed down first so nothing creaks under the new floor.

Local fact sheet

Newport's homes, by the numbers

Newport in the 2021 census: 66,054 households, 83% houses, 17% flats.

Newport covers NP10, NP18, NP19 and NP20 — Allt-yr-yn, Alway, Beechwood, Bettws, Gaer, Graig, Caerleon, and Bishton and Langstone. It is a Welsh unitary authority. Ownership was 62.9% at the 2021 census with social renting at 19.5% and private renting 16.7% — over a third of homes rented, which is high for Wales. Newport was a docks and steel town and the terraced housing reflects that: suspended timber ground floors, narrow rooms, and a base that will need levelling. Caerleon is older still. Where the property is a let, specify for the joint and the wear layer; where it is your own, the levelling is worth doing properly once.

Newport's flats are the part of the town this page's terrace advice does not reach, and they were built as flats: purpose-built blocks outnumber the ones carved out of older houses by better than six to one. In a Bettws, Lliswerry or Malpas block nothing under the floor resembles a terraced ground floor.

An Alway block floor is concrete cast between flats, with no outside air moving beneath it, so the moisture a plank meets rises from inside the flat: showers, cooking, washing dried on an airer, all of it peaking in the shut-window months.

Guides

Before you choose

Before you order in Newport

  • Underlay for the room below A bedroom floor is heard downstairs. The underlay is chosen on its impact-sound figure, tested under EN 16354.
  • Warmth underfoot An underlay adds it; a thin floor over a cold void loses it. Over underfloor heating, thin and rated for it.
  • Thresholds at the doors A floating floor through several rooms is broken at the doorways so each room moves on its own.
  • Bedrooms over the front room In a semi the bedroom floors are the front room's ceiling. The underlay's impact-sound figure is chosen for the household below, not only for a flat next door.
  • Screw down the old boards A new floor over a creaking one creaks. Fix the base first.

Questions

Bedroom flooring in Newport: questions, answered

Which floor suits a bedroom in Newport?

Laminate for most bedrooms, on an underlay chosen for warmth and sound; engineered oak for a main bedroom an owner wants in timber; rigid vinyl where an en-suite opens off it. The bedroom guide linked below goes through the underlay question in detail.

Will a hard floor in the bedroom be heard downstairs?

Without the right underlay, yes. The impact-sound improvement of an underlay is tested and stated as a figure; in a flat Approved Document E and the lease set what that figure has to reach. Choose on the datasheet, not the pack.

Is laminate warm enough for a bedroom?

On the right underlay over a heated or insulated floor, yes; over a cold void with a thin underlay, no floor is. Over underfloor heating the laminates in the range are listed as compatible and the underlay is chosen for it.

Can I order flooring samples to my Newport address?

Samples reach any NP10, NP18, NP19 or NP20 address, yes. Lay one down the length of the room and walk it end to end: a plank judged across a narrow terrace room reads quite differently once it runs the long way in daylight.

Do you deliver bedroom flooring to Newport?

Yes. We deliver across Newport and South Wales from our UK warehouse, including the NP10, NP18, NP19 and NP20 postcode districts. Delivery cost and timing depend on the delivery postcode and are shown at checkout, and samples come by post first so the floor can be seen in the room before the full order.

Can I see a bedroom sample before ordering in Newport?

Yes: cut samples are £1.99 each, up to two per product, posted to your Newport address. Two or three side by side on the floor, in the room's own light morning and evening, settle the colour faster than any photograph.
