Difference between solid oak herringbone floor and oak engineered wood flooring

There are two types of oak herringbone floors on the market: solid oak herringbone floors and composite herringbone floors, also known as engineered floors.

A solid oak herringbone floor consists of one piece of solid oak and is installed directly on the subfloor. Engineered wood flooring consists of a thin top layer of solid oak that is glued to a plywood underlay. This construction makes it possible to stabilize the floor and prevent the floor from expanding or shrinking under the influence of temperature and humidity changes.

The advantage of herringbone parquet over solid oak herringbone floors is that it is more resistant to warping and less sensitive to moisture. This makes it possible to use herringbone parquet in rooms with underfloor heating. Engineered wooden floors also have a more favorable price tag than solid oak herringbone floors, while the appearance is almost identical. After all, it is impossible to see at the top of the plank whether it is parquet or solid wood.

Herringbone engineered wood flooring can be easily combined with Underfloor heating

Another advantage of herringbone engineered wood flooring is that it can be easily combined with underfloor heating. Thanks to the construction of the engineered wood floor, with a plywood underlay, the heat can be distributed evenly over the entire floor. This provides a pleasant and comfortable feeling on the feet and contributes to a more comfortable living environment in the home.

Oak herringbone floors are available in different colors and sizes. At Uipkes you can choose from 90 colors, ranging from light, neutral shades to dark, warm colors. This makes it possible to adapt the floor to your personal style and taste.
