Hardwood flooring in Woodstock, GA from Cherokee Floor Covering

What patterns can hardwood planks be installed in?


Many unique options help create a spectacular visual for your wood floors, including various installation patterns and layouts. In today's post, we're going to tell you more about those and how you can benefit from the option.

Wood floors make sense for customization

Customizing your wood floors is a great way to get the appearance and décor match you need, and even installation layouts can help craft that look. In addition, some installations offer additional benefits, including increased strength and stability underfoot.

A herringbone installation offers the symmetrical perfection many homeowners are looking for with an eye-catching zigzag pattern. This geometrical arrangement is named because it resembles the bone structure of the herring fish.

The chevron installation pattern creates a “V” shape, with each row pointing in the opposite direction to the one adjacent. Depending on your preference, these options can be run parallel to the window or not, and they create additional stability, especially in older homes.
