{"product_id":"pale-invisible-oak-herringbone-engineered-wood-flooring-riviera-click","title":"Pale Invisible Oak 150mm Engineered Herringbone, Classic Grade","description":"\u003cp\u003ePale Invisible Oak in the wide 150mm click format is a light, relaxed herringbone that is laid as a floating floor. It is Classic grade oak with a 3mm real oak top layer on a 14mm base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLook and character\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe colour is pale natural oak, subtle and understated. Here the surface is brushed and matt lacquered, so there is a gentle texture you can feel and a low sheen. Classic grade gives some knots and grain variation, adding a little character to the light tone. The wide blocks suit large rooms, open-plan spaces and modern homes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 150 x 600mm, this is one of the wider herringbone formats, so the pattern is bold and the room feels less busy. The 4V bevelled edges give each block a fine shadow line on all four sides. Under the 3mm real oak surface sits a multi-ply base, bringing each block to 14mm in total. A 3mm oak layer can be lightly sanded and refinished by a professional if the surface ever needs refreshing. That engineered core is what keeps the floor steady when the air in the room gets drier or more humid through the year. Each pack covers 1.8 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. It is suitable for living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, hallways, kitchens and conservatories, and it can be used on stairs too. Like any real oak floor it isn't waterproof, so keep standing water off it in the kitchen. Stairs need a finished edge, so add \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stair-nosing\"\u003estair nosing\u003c\/a\u003e to the order. Compare other \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/herringbone-engineered-wood-flooring\"\u003eengineered herringbone floors\u003c\/a\u003e to weigh up sizes and colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and underfloor heating\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eClick joints mean the herringbone goes down as a floating floor, which keeps installation simpler than a bonded parquet.

Cover the expansion gap at the walls with scotia beading.
