{"product_id":"field-oak-herringbone-engineered-wood-flooring","title":"Field Oak 80mm Engineered Herringbone","description":"\u003cp\u003eField Oak is a natural, mid-toned herringbone with an unusually thick 6mm real oak top layer. Its 80mm blocks sit on a 20mm engineered build, giving it the feel of a solid parquet floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLook and character\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe colour is honest, medium oak with no strong stain, warm and plain in the best sense. Rustic grade means knots, grain movement and natural marks across the floor, which fits the country feel of the name. Brushing gives a textured surface and the oiled finish keeps it natural and low in sheen. It is a floor that suits farmhouse kitchens, period hallways and relaxed living rooms alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 20\/6mm terms, 20mm is how thick the whole block is and 6mm is the depth of real oak on its face. With 6mm of oak on top, a professional can sand and refinish the surface when the time comes, much as with an old parquet floor. That engineered core is what keeps the floor steady when the air in the room gets drier or more humid through the year. Small 80 x 350mm blocks give a detailed pattern with lots of joints, which is what makes classic parquet look the way it does. The 2V bevel runs along the two long edges, outlining the length of each block while the ends butt close. Each pack covers 1.12 m².\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStart the pattern from the room's main sight line, often the doorway, so the zigzag runs where it is seen most. Use it through the main living spaces, bedrooms, the hallway, kitchen and conservatory, and on stairs. Kitchens are fine as long as spills are wiped up, because real oak is not waterproof. For a staircase, pair it with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stair-nosing\"\u003estair nosing\u003c\/a\u003e for a neat edge on every tread.

Allow roughly 10% extra for cutting and waste when you work out how many packs you need. If you float it, choose a suitable \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/flooring-underlay\"\u003eflooring underlay\u003c\/a\u003e first.
