Herringbone Flooring

Herringbone flooring is the most popular and most specified of all our parquet range. Above all, it provides a flowing contemporary feel to any interior. Relatively simple to install and also structurally stable.

The majority of our floors can be manufactured from the same oak and in the same thickness and finish. Subsequently, this means a continuous shade scheme can be achieved. For example,  herringbone in an entrance hallway that flows into a matching shade plank floor in a living room. Likewise, a matching strip border around the perimeters can be incorporated.

Because our herringbone flooring is engineered, it can be used over most forms of under-floor heating. Our heating guide shows the acceptable temperature and humidity levels.

Select grade engineered oak is used as a wear layer with a natural oiled finish as standard. With a little regular maintenance and care, the floor should last a lifetime of heavy use
In addition, we can also offer a surface finish in hard-wearing matt lacquer or for commercial projects we can apply a waterproof finishing oil during production.

Installing

Our engineered herringbone flooring can be quickly and easily installed over any type of flat floor. The blocks can be fully bonded to a suitable sub-floor using a flexible adhesive.  See our installation guides  for more information. As an alternative, the heavyweight structure of the blocks enables then to be laid floating. This involves simply bonding together with PVA adhesive over a fibre and rubber underlayment. Provided it is laid onto a flat base, it will result in a rigid solid feel when correctly installed.

Features & Options

Each floor is made to order at our Leeds factory. Consequently, this means that an extensive range of textures and shades and finishes are available. Usually, we  can manufacture, finish and deliver within three to five weeks of order

If a more aged appearance is desired we can re-work the individual blocks. Therefore, as a result,  hand scraping, edge chipping, surface saw marks and indents can all be undertaken before final finishing.  Our reclaimed parquet section shows a few examples of our distressing ageing and reworking.
