Engineered Chevron Flooring
Engineered chevron flooring combines the striking chevron parquet pattern with the stability of engineered wood construction.
Each board is cut at an angle so that when installed the planks form a continuous V-shaped design across the floor. Unlike solid wood boards, engineered chevron flooring uses a layered construction that improves stability and reduces movement caused by humidity changes.
This combination of design and stability makes engineered chevron flooring a popular choice in modern homes.
What Is Engineered Chevron Flooring?
Engineered chevron boards consist of a real wood wear layer bonded to multiple layers of plywood or hardwood beneath.
The boards are precision cut so that the angled ends meet perfectly in the centre line, creating the characteristic chevron pattern.
Because of the engineered construction, the boards are less prone to expansion and contraction compared with solid wood flooring.

Installation Considerations
Chevron flooring requires careful planning during installation because the boards must align precisely to maintain the V-shaped pattern.
Installers usually begin from a centre line and work outward across the room to keep the pattern symmetrical.
Professional installation helps ensure:
accurate board alignment
consistent pattern spacing
correct expansion gaps
