Herringbone refers to standard rectangular boards, all of which are the same size. Pre-cut pieces are cut at 90° on both ends. Width of the herringbone is measured across the board, top side. Length is measured along the side, from corner to corner.
Chevron or French Herringbone refers to boards cut on both ends at a 45° angle. Chevron measured from tip to tip on the same side. Other cut angles are available upon request. Chevron is supplied as an equal quantity of Left and Right pieces. Chevron' maximum width is 5 inches.

Precautions for chevron insatall method
①. Pay attention to the calculation of loss: the herringbone floor is spliced according to the "V", and the beginning and end must be trimmed, so the loss during paving is higher than the installation loss of conventional flooring. The installation loss according to the room type is generally About 8-14%. At the same time, during the production process of bone-bonded flooring, the wooden floor needs to be cut, resulting in a lot of loss, so the price of herringbone flooring is relatively high.
②. High requirements on the flatness of the ground: Among all wooden floor laying methods, the herringbone splicing method has the highest requirements on the flatness of the ground. Different from other laying methods, fishbone splicing must be aligned with 4 seams, that is, the four corners of each board must be completely aligned, so as to ensure that the sharp points of the "V" of the two fishbone can be aligned. If the ground leveling is not done well and the gaps are not aligned, the corners of the wooden floor will be warped or even the gaps will become larger, which will affect the service life。
③. Long customization cycle: Fishbone flooring is produced in batches, and different batches of floors will have slight differences in color, gloss and even surface wood grain. Herringbone flooring is labor-intensive and materials-intensive, especially the seams and seams need to be cut.
Acceptance method of chevron
①.Check the middle seam:
When trying to lay the flooring, pay attention to the size of the middle seam between the front and back boards, and also pay attention to the size of the seam between the same side boards, because the error is cumulative, as long as the gap is inconsistent, it will affect all subsequent floorings Paving.
②. Check the head and tail:
The Chevron joint should not only be aligned but also pointed, because bending will cause the flooring to be misaligned. Affect the appearance. In addition, uneven pointed ends are more likely to cause the flooring to warp and edge, especially for areas with too much heating in winter, it is difficult to repair the warped floor after thermal expansion.
③. Check the flatness:
Choose the Chevron splicing method, it is best to do self-leveling when the ground is treated. In addition, it is best to spread 3 rows during the trial shop, each row is more than 4 meters long, so that it is easy to find errors.
