Hi Danielle, We have had many customers that have used engineered Herringbone in their kitchens with great success, we would recommend you look at lacquered boards as this will protect the board from any spillages and stains. This is our smooth Herringbone board fitted in one of our customers kitchens. This is our Lucerne Herringbone. This is our Pyrenees Herringbone that was recently fitted in our clients kitchen and hallways. This is our Walnut herringbone 600mm board This is our Brushed Herringbone If you go for a thick engineered board (18/5mm) then it will withstand the test of time. If you have any queries regarding any of our Herringbone board please feel free to email us at Info@floormonster.co.uk or call us on 0141 887 5698. We also have a live chat feature on our website! Kind Regards, Floor Monster Team

Hi Barney, That sounds fab and I'm sure it will look beautiful. Just a quick comment on parquet / herringbone tiles after some recent experience on our renovation project, you probably know this already but I didn't and it ended up as quite an expensive learning for us; cutting tiles to a herringbone pattern is super time consuming! No problem if you get a fixed price upfront or are doing it yourself but having just had our new walk in shower tiled (2m x 1m) in a herringbone pattern I was astounded by how long it took and the complexity of all the 45 degree cuts! It looks stunning but I selected the tiles and pattern with aesthetics in mind and definitely with no comprehension of the cost implications :) Best wishes, Claire

I completely agree, forget about herringbone on the stairs. Consider: a) Leaving or re carpeting your stairs as they are b) Remove the carpet and paint the treads and risers with a durable floor paint. Dulux does one. or my favoured option c) remove the current carpet and replacing it with a runner (carpet that does not go to the edge). Think about a flat weave or a sisal look covering. Try not to go for actual sisal as this is slippery and can be problematic. You will have to consider if you want the edges turned or turned and bound. Before fitting the carpet you will have painted the exposed edges, if needed to match banisters etc. When it comes to the landings, the most expensive and nicest option is to have the runner made to fit but this is more binding or other finishing. By the way I would not particularly recommend a highly contrasted binding, nor would I suggest a particularly wide one as I think it now looks both look a little dated. See attached lots of options that may get you thinking. and more expense. The most cost effective option is to leave landings bare and either fully paint or sand and stain depending on adjacent floors.
