LVT HERRINGBONE FLOORING FAQ'S
What Is LVT Herringbone Flooring?
LVT Herringbone flooring refers to a type of flooring that combines the elegance of a herringbone pattern with the durability and versatility of Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT).
Herringbone pattern is a popular geometric design characterized by a series of rectangular planks or tiles arranged in a zigzag pattern. LVT Herringbone flooring utilizes LVT planks or tiles specifically designed to create the herringbone pattern. These planks or tiles are available in various different colours, finishes, and textures, allowing you to choose the style that best suits your aesthetic preferences.
LVT is a synthetic flooring material that replicates the appearance of natural materials like wood or stone but offers greater durability and ease of maintenance. Unlike solid wood flooring, LVT flooring is resistant to moisture, scratches, stains, and wear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas or bathrooms where other flooring types may not be suitable.
Overall, LVT Herringbone flooring combines the timeless herringbone pattern with the practicality and durability of LVT, providing a stylish and long-lasting flooring option for various spaces.

How Long Does LVT Herringbone Flooring Need To Acclimatise?
Any wood flooring will need to acclimatise to its new home before you can start laying the floor. The length of time needed to acclimate will depend on what type of wood flooring you choose. The recommended time for LVT flooring is a minimum of 48 hours.
The reason for acclimating your flooring is to prevent issues in the future such as warping, cupping, or bucking caused by excessive movement. By allowing your flooring to adjust to the temperature and humidity conditions of your home first, you can prevent these issues from occurring.
