This engineered oak floor in an 80 × 300 mm format is ideal for creating a classic, fine-scale
parquet layout with the practicality of modern construction. The compact block size produces a
tight, detailed pattern that works especially well in London hallways, entrance areas, bay-fronted
living rooms and period properties where an oversized plank would feel out of place.
Each piece is manufactured with a real oak wear layer bonded to an engineered core, giving far
better stability than traditional solid parquet. That extra stability is important in homes with
central heating and changing humidity levels, where solid blocks can be prone to gaps or
distortion over time. When the floor is fully bonded to a correctly prepared subfloor, it creates
a robust surface that feels reassuringly solid underfoot and is designed for everyday use.
The 80 mm width and 300 mm length are perfect for traditional herringbone and other heritage
parquet patterns, delivering a refined, intricate rhythm that suits slimmer corridors and
compact rooms just as well as larger reception spaces. Natural oak grain, knots and tonal
variation ensure that no two floors are identical, whether you choose a lighter, more
contemporary finish or a richer tone to complement original features such as fireplaces and
cornicing.
This engineered oak parquet format is suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and many
other residential spaces, and can be used with most underfloor heating systems when installed in
line with the manufacturer’s guidance. If you are comparing parquet and herringbone wood flooring
options in London and North London, we recommend ordering a sample or visiting the Timberzone
showroom to view full-size panels, discuss subfloor preparation and adhesive systems, and plan
the best layout for your project.
