ONS, Census 2021, 2021-03-21 · all local facts →Two waterfront cities, administratively separate from the county around them, pull the figures one way; the market towns and garrison districts inland pull them back.
Terraces and flats crowd the coast, while the inland stock spreads fairly evenly between detached, semi-detached and terraced. One average would describe neither half, so the specification follows the property rather than the county.
Coastal terraces raised before the Great War rest on joists at ground level and want levelling. City centres rebuilt after the war are solid floor, where the membrane matters more than the boards do, and estate building inland repeats that slab to a pattern. In the cathedral core and the protected streets, original boards cannot come up without consent.

Yes, across GU, RG, SO and PO. That covers Rushmoor and Basingstoke and Deane in the north, Eastleigh and Winchester in the middle, and the two city areas on the water. Outlying parishes are quoted on the same terms as the towns themselves.
For the terraced ground floors, one continuous run of engineered board from the front door through to the back beats a threshold strip at every doorway, since a narrow hall reads better long than wide. Where a property is let and turns over often, a hard-wearing laminate answers the same rooms for less.
Yes, and it is worth ordering more than one. In a narrow terraced hall, lay the sample along the length of the run rather than across it, and hold it against the door bottom: a period frame may not give back the height that a new build-up takes.
Up to 10 samples per order, and up to 2 of any one product, at £1.99 each, posted to any address in Hampshire.
