Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Our pricing includes materials, installation and customisation. Final costs depend on the size of your space, subfloor conditions and any design detailing. Get in touch for a tailored quote.
What’s involved in herringbone flooring installation?
Herringbone requires precise layout and alignment. Our team manages the full process, including layout planning, cutting, and professional installation for a clean, continuous pattern.
What’s the difference between herringbone and other parquetry styles?
Herringbone features rectangular boards laid in a staggered zigzag. Other styles, like chevron or Versailles, use different cuts and pattern geometry.
What's the difference between herringbone and chevron flooring?
Herringbone boards interlock at right angles to form a staggered zigzag. Chevron boards are cut at an angle and meet in a continuous point to form an unbroken V. Herringbone reads as more traditional, while chevron gives a more streamlined, directional look.
How do I care for herringbone timber floors?
Regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner is all you need to care for herringbone timber floors. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water to preserve the finish.
Can herringbone floors be refinished?
Yes. Our boards are prefinished with a high-performance coating that typically lasts for decades and can be refinished if needed, though this is rarely required.
Is herringbone flooring safe for pets and children?
Absolutely. Our finishes are durable, low-VOC and scratch-resistant. Herringbone is a practical choice for busy family homes.
Can I customise the herringbone pattern or colour?
Yes. Alongside offering full-service wooden flooring solutions, we offer custom tones, plank sizes, layout directions and edge detailing to suit your design vision.
