What does it cost to have a herringbone floor laid?
It depends on the subfloor, the surface area and what is there now. That is why we do not quote a price per m² without knowing your floor. Send us photos and the measurements through the form or WhatsApp, and you will get a fixed price in writing. If we cannot tell remotely, we come and look first.
Does the subfloor need levelling?
Often it does, especially for glued PVC. Herringbone needs a flat subfloor: otherwise every bump shows through or the joints open up. We check it beforehand and tell you where it is needed.
PVC, laminate or parquet: which suits me?
PVC is water-resistant and quiet, and works well in kitchens and hallways. Laminate is affordable and hard-wearing. Parquet is real wood and can be sanded again later. Not sure? Choose "Not sure yet" in the form and we will advise you.
How long does it take?
For 40 to 50 m² of herringbone, count on about three working days, skirting included. If levelling is needed, add a day for drying.
Can I buy the floor myself and have you lay it?
Yes, you can. Send us the order confirmation in advance and we will check the quantity. For herringbone that is about 15% more than the surface area, because every plank is mitred along the walls.
