Newport · South Wales
A floor over underfloor heating has to let heat through and stay flat while it does; 107 of the 122 floors in the range with the attribute are listed as compatible, and the ones that are not are the solid oak boards. 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.
Underfloor Heating in Newport
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 underfloor heating floor is specified here.
Semi-detached houses are 31% of the Newport stock, and the semi's extension is where Newport's underfloor heating is, more often than not, under a kitchen-diner on a new screed. An engineered board or a rigid-vinyl floor is listed for it; the screed dries at roughly a day per millimetre for the first 50 mm, and the system is run through its commissioning cycle before either goes down.
Terraced houses are 31% of the homes in Newport, and underfloor heating in a terrace usually arrives with the kitchen extension: a new screed at the back, radiators at the front. The floor over the heated screed is chosen from the compatible ranges, engineered oak, laminate or rigid vinyl, and the floor at the front can be the same board, floated over the timber, so the two rooms read as one.

Local fact sheet
Newport in the 2021 census: 66,054 households, 83% houses, 17% flats.
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.
Terraces and semis run neck and neck across Newport, a legacy of the docks and steel years, with detached homes a smaller share. Over a third of the stock is rented, split between social and private landlords. Under the terraced ground floors is suspended timber that wants levelling before anything goes down.
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.

The engineered oak, the parquet, the laminate, the rigid vinyl and the porcelain tiles are all listed as compatible. The solid oak boards are not. The commissioning cycle and the screed reading come before any of them.
Yes, engineered oak: every board in the range is listed for it. Trade guidance sets no blanket ban on wood over heating but ties it to the temperature limit, which the system's controls hold.
It is half of the thermal resistance. Floor and underlay together stay within 0.15 m²K/W; an underlay rated for heating is thin for that reason, and its tog value divided by ten gives the figure to add.
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.
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.
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.
