Alva Antigua Charcoal Oak Herringbone – Gluedown

Alva Herringbone brings the rhythm of a traditional parquet floor to a hallway, kitchen or open-plan living space, lending a sense of permanence to a new home and quiet grandeur to an older one. The click version is laid in 630mm x 126mm blocks, the dryback version in 610mm x 102mm. Herringbone asks a little more of the fitter than a straight plank — allow around fifteen percent for cutting and take care setting out the first rows — and rewards that care every day afterwards.

Antigua Charcoal Oak is the darkest decor in the range: a near-black charcoal oak with the grain showing as a soft sheen rather than colour. It anchors a room, sets off pale walls and painted kitchens, and hides day-to-day marks better than any light floor.

As a gluedown LVT this floor bonds directly to your subfloor for an exceptionally solid, quiet feel underfoot. Its slim profile keeps build height to a minimum — ideal where door clearances are tight — and full adhesion makes it the professional choice for heavy commercial spaces and rooms with underfloor heating, where direct contact means faster, more even heat response.
