Herringbone Engineered Wood Flooring

Timeless Craftsmanship

Herringbone engineered wood flooring is one of the most recognisable and enduring patterns in interior design. Originating in the grand European homes of the 16th century, this design remains a hallmark of sophistication, perfectly blending tradition with modern refinement. At Waxed Floors, we specialise in engineered Herringbone wood flooring, handcrafted with precision and installed by experienced artisans. Each block is laid at a 45° angle to create the distinctive zig-zag flow that defines the pattern. The result is a floor full of rhythm, movement and understated luxury, with geometric beauty that adds structure, continuity and warmth to any space. From classic oak to deep smoked hues, every variation tells its own story of craftsmanship and design.

The Art of Installation

Each Herringbone block is placed individually by hand, a craft that demands skill, patience and attention to detail. When executed correctly, the seamless flow of the pattern enhances light, perspective and the natural character of the wood. Our expert installers work with precision to achieve a perfect balance of geometry and grace, transforming any room into a space of elegance and harmony. Every stage of the process, from subfloor preparation to the final waxed finish, is carried out with respect for the material and the home it belongs to.

Designed with Your Home in Mind

We offer bespoke block sizes, finishes and tones to suit your space, whether you prefer a rich smoked oak or a pale Scandinavian-inspired look. From your first consultation, our design team will help you select the ideal layout and finish so your Herringbone parquet feels as though it was made for your home alone. The result is a floor that is both beautiful and enduring, crafted to stand the test of time.
