Parquet Flooring in Redhill

Herringbone in the 90 x 450 mm block suits the hallways and front rooms of terraces and semis; the larger 125 x 600 mm block and the chevron suit longer rooms; a Versailles panel wants a square room with the space to show it. The guide on herringbone against chevron sets out the difference in fitting as well as in look.

The engineered blocks in this range are glued down. A pattern floor holds its geometry through the adhesive; floated, the blocks drift. The rigid-vinyl herringbone is the click-together alternative where a glued floor is not wanted.

Manufacturers' guidance puts the waste allowance for herringbone or chevron at 15 to 20 percent, against 8 to 12 for a straight plank, because every cut at the perimeter produces an unusable offcut. The calculator on the site works with the real pack sizes.

A sample tells you what a drawing cannot, so order one to any RH1 or RH2 address and hold it against the wall that is least square. A long plank shows every degree of that; a shorter format forgives it, and the difference is quantity.

Yes. We deliver across Redhill and Surrey from our UK warehouse, including the RH1 and RH2 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 Redhill 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.
