{"product_id":"deep-smoked-oak-herringbone-engineered-wood-flooring","title":"Deep Smoked Oak 90mm Engineered Herringbone","description":"\u003cp\u003eDeep Smoked Oak has the dark, rich colour that smoking gives oak, set in a 90mm herringbone. It is an engineered floor, 14mm thick, with a 3mm real oak top layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLook and character\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSmoking deepens the natural hues of the oak, and here the result is a deep brown with a smoky edge. Rustic grade adds knots and bold grain changes, so the dark colour has plenty of variation. The brushed surface gives texture you can feel, and the lacquer seals it for everyday use. It looks at home in period houses and in modern rooms with pale walls, where the dark zigzag becomes the main feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe build is 14mm in total, made up of a 3mm layer of real oak over cross-laid plywood. The 3mm layer is a common, practical depth for engineered oak, and a fitter can usually give it a light sand in the future. That engineered core is what keeps the floor steady when the air in the room gets drier or more humid through the year. The 90 x 400mm block is a classic herringbone size that works in small rooms and open-plan spaces alike. With a 2V bevel on the long sides, the zigzag lines are defined but the floor still looks fairly flush. One pack lays 1.872 m².\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is listed for kitchens, conservatories, hallways, bedrooms, dining rooms and living rooms, as well as stairs. Kitchens are fine as long as spills are wiped up, because real oak is not waterproof. Herringbone runs well from room to room, so it can link a hall, kitchen and living space in one pattern.

If you are continuing up the stairs, choose matching \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stair-nosing\"\u003estair nosing\u003c\/a\u003e for the tread edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and underfloor heating\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit it with tongue and groove joints, either floating on a suitable underlay or fully glued down. A floating installation needs a good \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/flooring-underlay\"\u003eflooring underlay\u003c\/a\u003e underneath. It can be used over underfloor heating, and you'll find other options in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/underfloor-heating-flooring\"\u003eunderfloor heating flooring\u003c\/a\u003e collection. Scotia beading gives a tidy finish where the floor meets the skirting.
