How to Install
Installation should be completed by suitably qualified trades and must adhere to any relevant NCC & building requirements.
- (Herringbone products Direct stick installation is recommended).
- When installing direct stick, always follow adhesive supplier recommendations, taking care to select the right adhesive based on the subfloor type. And then select the correct trowel size and type to suit the adhesive, incorrect selection of trowel can lead to adhesive and moisture barrier failure.
- Allowance for Expansion — Timber expands and contracts with changing seasons and temperatures.
- Expansion Gaps — Provide a minimum 10mm gap around the entire perimeter including where it meets any vertical obstructions such as walls, fixed furnishings, plumbing penetrations and flooring transitions.

Care & Maintenance
Under desk chairs or other wheeled furnishings use a non- staining mat and rubber casters. Although be aware rubber will cause staining to the surface of the floor over time, so again select mats without rubber backing.
Be aware like your skin timber can tan in the sun, timber naturally oxidizes in the sun and coatings fade, this is a natural ageing process of a natural product. This should be managed by moving furnishings from time to time to avoid uneven colour changes.
If exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged periods timber can also suffer more serious issues such as minor cracking. The floors are designed for an indoor surface and need to be kept in comfortable living temperatures. Excessive heat, humidity and fluctuations in temperature can cause the floor to distort.
