How to Install Herringbone Wood Flooring

[@JakePlisskin12]

How nice to have walls so straight and square.

[@timsinson5182]

The walls are probably not straight and square , this guy knows how to reference his tolerations ....

[@Kainosktisis]

Love the simple starting process, you don't over complicate the install, love to see efficient work, hopefully your still doing well, great job.

[@sajjadmalik9365]

so far this is the best design of wood floor i have seen.

[@timsinson5182]

Way to go Nick ! This looks like a super logical way to go about this . I have to do a herringbone on a slab and was wondering how to do it . Building the first big piece by glueing it together before down seems like money . Thanks a million ........

[@astrokopp]

Nice work. For an even more stunishing result mix the wood panels from different packages before laying the floor. Than you don't get light and dark spots and the view is a little bit more homogeneous.

[@HannadayFLO]

Totally agree!

[@SKYLINEFLOORINGLLC]

Love this design, this is beautiful. Great Job guys!

[@ADARAFLOORING]

Thank you so much for the video. Nicely done.

[@lyndalynda6675]

please tell me the color and type of wood you used? Beautiful!

[@claytonsimplot9554]

Unbelievable! The room is square and the walls are parallel. That makes a perfect job. They should had mixed the boxes though. There's an area that stands out.

[@BasillaB]

What brand of planks are you using

[@MrRockyOne]

👍👍👍

[@HelenWu-m7v]

Great video, it's always fun to watch pros at work! What size flooring boards are used in the video? Also, what type of subfloor and adhesives used? Thank you

[@disgruntled4298]

Wow! Talk about making an easy job setting out long and hard. Find the centre, chalk line baton your 45 degree angle and work off of that. I’ve been laying floors for thirty years. Also why no tapping block? Hitting the wood directly is a no no.

[@jarnailsingh9447]

Very nice thanks.

[@scottuntz4534]

Do you remember what size planks those are?

[@MrRonnie491]

Nicely laid but should leave 10 mm from sides to allow for expansion

[@Champ7611]

Around 6mm for glued floors

[@Hullcityscott]

I’m going to fit this in my kitchen it’s got tongue and grove chipboard flooring, you you still ply line it before installing? Cheers

[@disgruntled4298]

No need to ply unless you need to get under your floor at any time in the future.

[@GHOST_maga]

qaqa o kley nedir kleyin adi nedir

[@sherifhamdy9229]

Our supplier asked us to install plywood over the tiles in order to be able to install the engineered wood right? Is this mandatory?

[@disgruntled4298]

Your fitter is correct, if you’re not going to remove the tiles you need a porous subfloor for the adhesive to stick to.

[@davewetton5450]

Has edging been used?

[@HannadayFLO]

Yes - beading! 😢 he should have removed skirting around the edges then reinstalled it. He should also have mixed the boards from all the packages so he wasn't left with some areas light and maybe some areas dark which has happened - there's a light area!

[@saelmartinez8622]

Good job aprendí algo nuevo 👍

[@andrzejwrzesz]

Without taking down skirting boards is bs. Just why?

[@kernow9324]

I'm afraid I agree. The scotia beading makes the floor look like laminate.

[@tonyg6103]

In his defense maybe he doesn’t want to maybe the client doesn’t want to and maybe there’s the liability he doesn’t want especially if the skirt boards are old and brittle. Would be a pain to have to fix damaged pieces when upon taking them off. Skirt boards staying on or taking off is entirely optional.

[@HannadayFLO]

@@tonyg6103it's amateurish. Doing such an expensive flooring, even if it means new skirting then so be it - imo it must be taken off.

[@tonyg6103]

@@HannadayFLO you can say it’s amateurish but you don’t know the context of why it’s kept on. At this point enjoy the video and forget the skirtboards it’s not your floor and not your project.

[@mattgreen2398]

I’m currently doing up my house and I’m a carpenter , would prefer to glue the engineered flooring down as I feel like it’s a better job and more solid. Would there be any disadvantages gluing down to a ply or chipboard sun floor and below that I have underfloor heating

[@michaelbacile8439]

(Pro wood floor installer for 14 years) no, the only thing I’d recommend is that you acclimate the planks to a higher temp than the ambient room temp. So if you keep your rooms at 75 I would acclimate the wood to a couple degrees higher before install. That’ll assure that you won’t get any weird expansion rates causing cupping or buckling when the floor heat kicks on

[@mattgreen2398]

@@michaelbacile8439 thanks for your reply Michael I appreciate that a lot. At the moment I’m having the whole house done but the main work is downstairs which I still need plastering and all the heating is off . I was going to take all the flooring upstairs to acclimatise( as we are living there so it’s warmer upstairs and then when in a couple weeks when the plaster is on the walls and drying I can bring the acclimatised floor down and start fitting. Only thing I’m worried about is the wet plastered walls. If it’s not completely dry and it introduces moisture into the boards then I might have a problem. In turn experience how risky is flooring engineered oak flooring in a room that isn’t fully stable , no heating on and plastered walls. Or would you wait to fit finished floor when plastered has fully dried and the UFH on slightly ?

[@michaelbacile8439]

Oak in general isn’t very finicky when it comes to acclimation, Engineered oak is even more stable than solid oak. Still, every time I do a job I act like the customers house is mine until I’m done. In your case, if my house had wet plaster and other work being done I would still wait. As expensive as herringbone is, it’s not worth the risk even if you have a notably stable species of wood. You’ve come all this way remodeling, don’t get the wood in ahead of other trades. Floors should always be LAST just before touch ups and punch list.

[@disgruntled4298]

There only thing I would add to the other comments for engineered wood is to only glue three rows at a time, less mess when you tap them together and no risk of the top glue surface hardening by the time you lay. (Thirty years fitting all types of wood)

[@MrHenkeeper]

I’m a fairly competent DIYer and about to lay a herringbone in a bedroom with uneven floorboards. But I have a few questions having watched a few of these videos so bear with me… they might be daft but I’d rather ask a stupid question than cock it up! 1. How do I deal with an uneven & moving (as in they flex when you walk on them) floorboards? 2. Having addressed 1 (I’m assuming screwing then down) should I then lay ply down and if so what thickness? 3. Should I glue? 4. Or should I lay underlay? 5. Will expansion gaps be needed for either option? 6. Any other suggestions I’ve not considered? Thanks I’m advance KZbinrs! 3.
