Alva Antique Oak Herringbone – Click

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.

Antique Oak is a warm honey oak with a gently weathered grain — a classic mid-tone that sits as comfortably in a period cottage as in a new-build. It is one of the most versatile decors in the range if you want warmth without going dark.

With its simple click-lock system this floor installs as a floating floor straight over most existing subfloors — no adhesive, no specialist tools, and no waiting for glue to cure. Planks lock together in minutes, making it a favourite with confident DIYers, and the rigid SPC core keeps every joint tight and stable in rooms that see big temperature swings, including conservatories and kitchens.
