Real timber, considered design
Rothwell Oak Herringbone is part of the Core Grain Heritage collection, chosen for its classic herringbone format, brushed surface and natural colour character. Real oak brings variation that changes with the light and the materials around it. The interlocking rhythm of herringbone adds movement and detail to a room, creating a traditional parquet pattern that also sits comfortably within contemporary interiors.
Natural character
Select grading gives a more uniform appearance while retaining the individuality of real timber. Subtle changes in grain and tone help the floor feel natural without relying on the stronger character of a rustic grade. View a physical sample in the room where the floor will be laid. Daylight, artificial lighting and neighbouring finishes all affect the way its colour is perceived.
Surface and finish
The lacquered finish completes the surface while keeping the grain of the timber visible. Use appropriate cleaning products and protect the finish from grit, standing moisture and unprotected furniture feet. Regular care helps preserve the appearance of the floor as the room is used over time.
Engineered construction
The 15mm engineered construction includes a 4mm oak wear layer over a multi-ply base. The stated dimensions are 90mm wide × 400mm long × 15mm thick. Tongue & Groove joints form part of the installation system. Each pack covers 1.872m² before allowing for cuts and waste. Confirm the layout and required quantities with your fitter before ordering.
Planning and installation
The specified installation method is nailed or glued down. A professional fitter should assess the subfloor and follow the product installation instructions. The floor is suitable for underfloor heating subject to those instructions and the requirements of the heating system. It is intended for domestic rooms except bathrooms. Allow for perimeter cuts and the waste associated with your chosen layout.
Choosing your Core Grain floor
Use the photographs to explore the design and confirm the appearance with a physical sample before making your final choice. Real wood naturally varies in grain and colour, so photographs cannot show every possible board. The product carries a 25-year warranty, subject to the applicable terms. Your Core Grain product code is CG-HER-HB-015.
