Chevron Flooring in Staines-upon-Thames
Chevron cuts each block at an angle so the boards meet in a continuous point, an arrow rather than a zig-zag; in this range it is engineered oak, 14 mm thick, glued down. In Staines-upon-Thames roughly one home in 4 is a flat (26%), so sound through the floor matters alongside the base under it.

Chevron flooring in Staines-upon-Thames: what the housing says
The Spelthorne district counts 41,804 households in the 2021 census, and the mix of houses and flats in that count is what decides how a chevron floor is specified here.
Semi-detached houses are 34% of the homes in Spelthorne, and the semi's living room, opened up front to back, is the room a chevron was drawn for: the point of the arrow runs from the bay to the garden. The two bases along that run, timber and concrete, are levelled to one another before the first block.
Flats are 26% of homes in the Spelthorne district, and a chevron in a flat is a glued floor over the slab; where the lease has an impact-sound clause, the acoustic layer has to be one the adhesive is approved for. The pattern suits the long, narrow living rooms of purpose-built blocks.
Owner-occupation is 69% in Spelthorne, and a chevron is an owner's floor in the same way a herringbone is, only more so: it is planned to the room, mitred, glued, and kept. The 3 mm wear layer allows it to be sanded when the time comes.

The Knightsbridge Chevron comes in two faces, Knightsbridge Chevron Natural Brushed Oak and Knightsbridge Chevron Raw Oak, both 14 x 90 x 510 mm, tongue and groove, engineered, with a 3 mm wear layer and listed for underfloor heating. For the same pattern in a kitchen, the herringbone rigid-vinyl range is the click alternative; there is no chevron in vinyl in the range.

Local fact sheet
Staines-upon-Thames's homes, by the numbers
Spelthorne in the 2021 census: 41,804 households, 73% houses, 26% flats.
Staines-upon-Thames covers TW18 and TW19 — Staines, Staines South, Riverside and Laleham, Egham Hythe, Ashford North and Stanwell South, and the Heathrow Villages. It is part of Spelthorne, a Surrey district. Staines has the sharpest ownership fall of any town on this list: down 4.5 points to 68.1% between 2011 and 2021, with private renting up 5.2 points to 17.9%. Proximity to Heathrow explains much of it. The other local factor is the river: parts of Staines sit in the Thames flood plain, and where a ground floor has flood history, a floor that can be lifted and relaid is worth more than one that is glued down permanently.
Staines-upon-Thames is a name doing a lot of work: TW18 and TW19 run from Stanwell North and the Heathrow Villages across to Thorpe, Egham Hythe and Ashford North, and hardly any of that is the town centre. Two addresses in the same postcode can be different jobs entirely.
Low ground near the river keeps a slab damper than higher ground does, and that load sits there all year rather than on the day the water comes up. Meter the subfloor first: the reading, not the room, settles whether a timber floor is sensible.
Delivery times and options depend on the delivery postcode. See Delivery & Returns for the applicable estimate.
Guides
Before you choose
Before you order in Staines-upon-Thames
- The axis of the room A chevron points. Decide which way before the drawing, because the drawing fixes the border and the border fixes the quantity.
- Flat enough for glue Mitred blocks show every hollow. A straightedge over the base, then a levelling compound if it fails.
- 15 to 20 percent over The pattern allowance on the manufacturers' guidance, ordered in one batch.
- Point it through the house A chevron running front to back through a knocked-through semi wants the axis decided for the whole run, and both bases at one level before the adhesive.
- Lease and adhesive An acoustic layer under glued blocks has to be one the adhesive is approved for.
- Refinished, not replaced A glued oak chevron is sanded and refinished in place. Keep the invoice, the batch number and the adhesive name with the house papers.

Questions
Chevron flooring in Staines-upon-Thames: questions, answered
Herringbone or chevron for a Staines-upon-Thames home?
Herringbone is the traditional zig-zag and forgives a squarer room; chevron is the continuous arrow and wants a room with length. Chevron blocks are mitred, so the setting-out is less forgiving and the border matters more. The comparison guide takes it further.
Is the chevron range suitable for underfloor heating?
Both Knightsbridge Chevron boards are engineered, 14 mm thick, and listed for underfloor heating, on a screed that is dry and a system that has been commissioned first.
Can I have chevron in a kitchen?
The oak chevron is for dry rooms. For a patterned floor in a kitchen the rigid-vinyl herringbone, listed as waterproof, is the range to look at; there is no vinyl chevron in the range.
Can I order flooring samples to my Staines-upon-Thames address?
Yes, to any TW18 or TW19 address. Ask for a piece of the matching beading as well as the board: it is a different material, it rarely lands on the same colour as the plank, and in an Ashford North room it runs round every wall.
Do you deliver chevron flooring to Staines-upon-Thames?
Yes. We deliver across Staines-upon-Thames and Surrey from our UK warehouse, including the TW18 and TW19 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.
Can I see a chevron sample before ordering in Staines-upon-Thames?
Yes: cut samples are £1.99 each, up to two per product, posted to your Staines-upon-Thames 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.
