Thanks in advance

If you have central heating, you should probably look to running water based underfloor heating off that, rather than electric which will be much more expensive to run than, say, gas central heating base system. Unfortunately, it's not trivial to add it to an existing heating system.

Underfloor heating has a much longer warmup time than radiators, and is therefore not so suitable if you run your heating for only a small part of each day.
