Two ways to lay the classic herringbone pattern
Every floor in this collection shares the same angled, interlocked parquet look, so the design decision comes down to construction. Engineered oak gives you a real timber veneer over a stable plywood core, a 15/3mm board with genuine grain, warmth and the ability to be recoated down the track. It is a premium, natural choice for living rooms, bedrooms and formal spaces.
SPC hybrid is a 9.5mm click-lock board that is 100% waterproof, hard-wearing and forgiving with kids and pets. It carries a printed herringbone timber decor with a textured surface, so you keep the heritage character while gaining a floor you can lay in busier, higher-traffic parts of the home. Pick the feel you want, the pattern stays the same.
Choosing between engineered oak and waterproof hybrid
Go with engineered oak where you want the real thing underfoot and the room stays dry: lounges, bedrooms, studies and hallways. Real timber is not waterproof, so keep it out of bathrooms, laundries and anywhere prone to standing water or heavy spills.
Choose SPC hybrid for kitchens, family zones, rentals and homes with pets or young children, where its waterproof, scratch-resistant surface earns its keep. Both options click together over a suitable subfloor. For exact board dimensions, wear layers, install methods and warranty terms, download the manufacturer info sheet on each product page rather than relying on a rule of thumb.
Order a sample, then buy with confidence
Herringbone is a commitment, so see it in your own light before you order the full quantity. Order a sample and check the tone against your walls, cabinetry and the way the sun moves through the room. Samples are paid, and they save costly guesswork on a feature floor.
Every product is price matched, so you get the pattern you want without paying more than you should. Collect from our Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne warehouses, or have your order sent by depot freight Australia-wide. Each product page also carries downloadable installation, maintenance, warranty and fire, slip and acoustic reports for the exact figures your builder or installer will need.
Frequently asked questions
What is herringbone flooring?+
Herringbone is a parquet pattern where rectangular blocks are angled and interlocked to form a repeating V. It has a heritage, timeless look that suits both period homes and modern interiors, and in this collection it comes as real-timber engineered oak or waterproof SPC hybrid.
Should I choose engineered oak or hybrid herringbone?+
Engineered oak is real timber and best for dry living areas and bedrooms where you want natural grain and warmth. SPC hybrid is 100% waterproof and family and pet friendly, making it the safer pick for kitchens, family zones and wet-prone rooms. Both give you the same herringbone pattern.
Is herringbone flooring waterproof?+
It depends on the construction. The SPC hybrid herringbone is 100% waterproof and suits kitchens and busy family areas. The engineered oak is real timber and is not waterproof, so avoid bathrooms, laundries and anywhere with standing water or heavy spills.
Can I get a sample of herringbone flooring?+
