12mm Canterbury Oak Laminate Herringbone Flooring

Unlike the other blocks in this format, its edges are micro-bevelled rather than fully bevelled, so the joints show less and the herringbone reads as a calmer, more continuous surface. Greige works with both warm and cool rooms: oak furniture, linen, stone-coloured walls or grey cabinets. The click profile allows a floating installation over an underlay, on a subfloor that is flat and dry, with an expansion gap at the walls; it is listed as compatible with underfloor heating, and its AC4 class suits living rooms, halls and bedrooms. Packed 32 blocks to a box, it gives 1.92 square metres per box and 92.16 square metres on a pallet of 48 boxes.

For a wet room, choose a rigid vinyl block rather than laminate; the BML Herringbone Smoked Limed Oak comes closest to this muted tone. Within the laminate herringbones, the 12mm Durham Oak is the cooler grey and the 12mm Whitby Oak the lighter natural decor.
