5 Reasons Herringbone Laminate Will Transform Your Home

Herringbone Laminate

Treat your home to something truly spectacular and transformative with Herringbone Laminate flooring. Keeping on trend, and simultaneously ensuring practicality, has never been easier. Read all about why Herringbone Laminate is the ultimate choice for flooring in your home and discover the rooms that it will suit best.

Aesthetics

There is little point in spending time and money on a floor that doesn’t bring a beautiful aesthetic to your home. With Herringbone Laminate though, you won’t be disappointed. The stunning pattern of Herringbone is timeless, bringing a luxurious and classic look to any room. Inspired by regal French décor, Herringbone Laminate takes the real wood look and the ageless design and creates a sophisticated aesthetic that combines the look you want with the practicality you need.

The Herringbone pattern is one that is easily recognised, for its parquet pieces that slot together in a stunning V formation. Each piece sits at a 90-degree angle to its neighbour and the slight differences in shade and markings, create a unique look for every room. At Flooring Village, we offer Herringbone Laminate in a variety of colours, giving you a broad choice to suit your personal taste. Select a Laminate floor that will compliment your furnishings and room layout and bring the aesthetic of your dreams to life.

DIY

Transforming your home couldn’t be simpler. In fact, it’s so easy you can do it yourself and save time and money by avoiding the organisation of an external fitter. Herringbone Laminate from Flooring Village is designed with a click locking system, meaning your parquet pieces slot together perfectly and with ease. Simply organise your laminate into two piles and begin slotting the pieces together at a 90-degree angle, and before you know it, your entire floor will be complete. The Herringbone Laminate is designed to be easy to fit yourself, so anyone can do it!

To fit your Herringbone Laminate and ensure a smooth and even finish, get your hands on an underlay from Flooring Village. Trust that the transformation will benefit from an underlay that creates an even surface ready for your Laminate. From the Baelea Floorlay to Elka Comfort Lay, you can opt for a suitable underlay with a thickness between 2-3mm that will give your laminate a smooth and comfortable base.

Enhances Rooms

Herringbone Laminate has a power that not many other floor types can brag about. The intricate detail of Herringbone creates an illusion of bigger rooms, meaning you can transform your bedroom, lounge, hallway, or dining room into a space fit for royalty, both in aesthetics and space. The contrast created by the diagonal pattern gives the impression that the floor space is wider or longer than it is. This adds to the grandeur that the pattern itself creates, by enhancing your corridor into an impressive hallway or turning a snug into a magnificent lounge.

Perfect for a multitude of rooms in the home, there is no reason not to have Herringbone Laminate. Being designed for durability and easy cleaning, laminate is ideal for high traffic rooms that don’t require the need for exceptional waterproofing. So, maybe not the chosen floor for your bathroom, but elsewhere in the home it’s the ultimate transformative flooring.

Practicality

It’s all well and good having a stylish, swish new floor, but it must be practical. At Flooring Village, we have a selection of Parquet Laminate that is perfect for Herringbone, including our exclusive Baelea range (with AC4 commercial rating), Berry Alloc, Egger, FAUS, and Quick-Step. All of which provide an easy assembly and maintenance. Laminate is hard wearing and is an excellent alternative to real wood, which can swell and rot. Instead, Laminate is a more cost-effective option that once fitted fully, will not leave your floors with nasty gapping or sunken boards.

Choosing Herringbone Laminate will also mean you are keeping your chore list short, as this flooring is so easy to clean. Using a simple damp cloth or mop, the smooth surface can be wiped clean with no issues. Where there are muddy shoes entering the hallway, splattering of food in the dining room, or pet hairs covering the lounge, having the ease of quick-cleaning laminate is a godsend.

Sound Deadening

Got a full house? The stomping feet of children running through the house, the pitter patter of pets, and the busy rushing round of you, requires a floor that will absorb sound rather than amplify it. Laminate is created from layers of fibre that are condensed together to create the pieces of floor ready to be fitted together in your home. Thanks to these layers, the impact of peoples’ and pets’ feet is cushioned and therefore the sound is deadened. No more fear of excessive noise added to the chaos of a busy house.

From the look to the ease to the sound benefits, Herringbone Laminate is the easy choice of flooring for you if you are looking for a stylish room transformation that won’t take ages to fit, will be simple to clean and will work well in a busy home. Find all our Herringbone Laminate options here.
