Hi Sara, we have just laid a luxury vinyl tile in a herringbone pattern throughout our extension.
We used Moduleo mainly as I preferred their colour and look of the tiles over the more famous brands like Amtico and Karndean (although they have some gorgeous colours too). Moduleo is also a bit cheaper than the bigger brands.
We are really pleased with the look and feel . I looked into getting laminate but the showrooms I looked at told me they didn’t lay the laminate boards in a herringbone pattern. You might find others that do though? We were also advised that the luxury vinyl tiles would be better for kitchen areas etc as can’t damage them with water/spills etc. We debated this very question for ages!

My friend has also just had Moduleo fitted in her hallway and it looks really good. She’s very pleased. Here’s a pic of hers.

Thank you, am very bad at making choices but this floor would be ideal for our beachside house. Just hope it won't look too artificial! Have seen the classic oak down and it looks so like real wood. Can find only one image of the Country Oak...on the Karndean website

It looks very good James. Even though as you say it was a clients design build, it works fine. Once the Island has stools it will fill it out better. Has that naked look at the moment. The position of the wine rack might cause issues but overall it looks like a really clean and fresh kitchen. Plenty of natural light and the colours compliment each other. The extractor is a nice feature too. Everyone has different opinions as I see on here but if the client is happy with it then job done. Looks really well fitted too.....well done :)

Marmoleum vs laminate floorboards for this open plan ground floor

And also there is some original tile left and I was toying with the idea of tiling over that strip all the way to the wall to create a small corridor of tile as you come in the front door for the 'hallway' that once was, to add interest and a sense of separation between kitchen and hall because the door opens into the kitchen directly which isn't ideal (we had to do away with a small pocket door and partition wall there.) and then do the rest in marmoleum. Would this look weird or should I just do the marmoleum throughout?

I'm planning on using a laminate herringbone floor throughout the downstairs of my house. Question is, has anyone had any issues laying it without a break or saddleboard...I like the look of it flowing throughout but it's quite a large space. From the front door to the back of the house it's approx 50ft (hallway, kitchen and playroom). I've heard that there may be issues with expansion if I don't put a 'break' in. Anyone any advice?

Hi Sara, an interesting quandary you've posed there. To help us advise further, it would be good to know a little about your situation.
1. How big is the area you plan to install new flooring in?
2. How long do you expect to stay in that property?
3. Do you live with anyone else? Any children, if so, ages? Any pets and if so, how many and what types?
4. What's your lifestyle like? What's the hustle and bustle like in your house? For example, an active, full on activity associated with a young family?
5. Do you have underfloor heating?
6. What budget do you have in mind for the project?

Hi Sara,

We have quite an unusual chevron laminate in our range which you might like. It comes in a natural oak shade or a dusky grey shown in the images below. Free samples are available from our website if you'd like to take a closer look:
