Herringbone Glue Down LVT Flooring

Yes. Luxury vinyl tiles and planks are made from vinyl layers, so the boards themselves are not damaged by water. That makes them a good choice for bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms. Seal the edges with a suitable sealant in bathrooms and wipe up standing water, so it cannot get beneath the floor.

The slim 76mm blocks give the most traditional, detailed pattern and suit period homes and smaller rooms. The 95mm blocks are a versatile classic. The 150mm by 750mm blocks create a bold, modern zigzag with fewer joints, ideal for large open-plan spaces.

Glue-down LVT is widely used in shops, offices and restaurants because it is waterproof, stable and hard-wearing, and a damaged block can be lifted and replaced individually. Our herringbone designs have wear layers of 0.55mm or 0.7mm; the 0.7mm options are best for high footfall.

Allow 10% extra for herringbone. Every row ends in an angled cut at the wall, and those offcuts are rarely reusable. Complex rooms with lots of corners and doorways may need a little more. It is also worth keeping a few spare blocks for future repairs.
