Salisbury · Wiltshire
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 Salisbury 88% of homes are houses, most of them detached houses (35%), so the questions are the subfloor and the underlay rather than impact sound.
Underfloor Heating in Salisbury
The Wiltshire district counts 215,081 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.
Detached houses are 35% of the homes in Wiltshire, and a detached house in Salisbury is the one most likely to have underfloor heating through the whole ground floor, on a screed. That is a long floating run or a large glue-down, and the thermal resistance of floor plus underlay is kept under the 0.15 m²K/W the systems are designed around, which rules out thick underlays.
Owner-occupation is 68% in Wiltshire, and an owner installing underfloor heating in Salisbury is usually doing it once, with a screed, and wants oak over it. The engineered range is listed for it, every board; the solid range is not. The wear layer of 3 mm or more still allows a sanding cycle later.

Local fact sheet
Wiltshire in the 2021 census: 215,081 households, 88% houses, 12% flats.
Milford, St Paul's, St Edmund's and St Francis and Stratford are where most Salisbury floors actually go down – ordinary residential streets in SP1 and SP2, semis and detached houses in the main, carrying the volume of orders. The Close is a small handful of addresses beside them.
Detached and semi-detached houses make up most of the stock around SP1 and SP2, though what sets Salisbury apart is the medieval grid and the Cathedral Close, with an unusual number of listed buildings among them. Older properties sit on suspended timber, the newer estates on a slab – two different preparations.
Solid walls in the medieval grid and the Close carry real thermal mass, so those rooms warm slowly and their moisture lags the season rather than tracking it. Judge the fit against the room in its colder state, not the summer one.

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.
Posted samples are how the rural half of this catchment usually decides. Fovant, the Till Valley, the lanes round Old Sarum – we post to all of them, and a board judged at home against your own walls tells you more than showroom lighting will.
Yes. We deliver across Salisbury and Wiltshire from our UK warehouse, including the SP1 and SP2 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 Salisbury 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.
