Can you install floating luxury vinyl tile in a herringbone pattern?

hace 6 años

I'm looking to install Lifeproof luxury vinyl tile from Home Depot in my basement. I can't find the manufacture's website to see if it can be installed in a herringbone pattern (vs the plank install which, imho, tends to look a little repetitive with only 8 plank patterns). Has anyone had experience with this flooring - or know any other clickable vinyl flooring that CAN be installed in this manner? Thanks in advance!

I believe there was someone here a while back who did a very fine DIY install with LVP and used a herringbone pattern in the hallway entry to great effect. However, I believe it was glue-down. I would think floating with individual vinyl planks would be close to impossible to install satisfactorily.

If you want herringbone you want an actual luxury wood floor, not a fake plastic one.

clickable has to have proper tongue and groove on all sides. otherwise it can't go in that pattern.

glue down would the only one to work for this pattern. I can't even tell you how difficult this pattern is to do w/wood, let alone a glue down vinyl. if even one plank is off by 1/8", the entire pattern is thrown off. All of your planks need to be the same size, w/width divisible by it's length. It can be done, but math is your friend here. there is a proper way to start this pattern and it's not just, "put the corner on the 45 and go!".

use a product that can be glued and also is meant to lock with the end of board. I would suggest a wood laminate. luxury vinyl is a good product although wood would most likely be less costly and a much finer and luxurious look. good luck.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone.

I would LOVE an actual wood or tile floor in my basement and to NOT have to use a vinyl product. But, given the old tile and mastic over concrete that is currently my floor AND that I've had a few water issues, those just aren't options available to me. Not even sure a glue down vinyl plank would stick to the old tile and mastic.

Try Parterre flooring systems. Those can be in a herringbone design. Its done in commercial spaces all the time:)

If it's a lock and fold, No. All planks must run in the same direction or you void warranties.

You could buy one carton and test it but as others have already pointed out, if there's a locking edge system, it probably won't work. A local supplier used to sell a vinyl called Freefit. It has no T&G and could be laid in a pattern.

It cracks me up sometimes when I look at the timing for replies on Houzz! Not sure if this is too late for the OP, but...It looks like Karndean has some. I had actually called them with this question just this morning, since I had seen that they have a herringbone in black and a woodtone ( https://www.karndean.com/en/floors/products/ap03-black-oak-parquet ) and also SO many beautiful stick-down herringbone products on their UK side (but I can't do a floor with adhesive).

The phone rep directed me to this page: https://www.karndean.com/en/floors/easy-fit-ranges/all-rigid-core

She advised that there are just three currently available in the US -- near the bottom of the page. They are all sort of barnwood-looking.

thank you so much! I'm really looking for a light colored wood, almost like white wash.

A white-ish wood-look herringbone would be so versatile! I haven't found it yet....hopefully it is "out there" somewhere. But for fantasy purposes here is something lovely available in the UK (it's glue down, so I include it just for fun): https://www.flooringsupplies.co.uk/vinyl/17701/karndean_knight_tile_lime_washed_oak_herringbone_sm-kp99_vinyl_flooring

Karenmo,,,Tilebar has these (10 colors) in a chevron

https://tilebar.com/collection/porcelain-tile/shop-by-look-porcelain/wood-look-tile.html?filtershapepattern=611

and this is a vinyl Biscayne oak -Lifeproof

otherwise, you can look for any whitewashed tile and lay in a herringbone. (length divisible by width is preferable )

Hi, Erin! I found your post as I am also looking for Herringbone LVP in light color for our basement, which had flooded twice in 25 years. What did you end up using? Would you be willing to upload a photo to show it? Thank you so much!

Has anyone used or seen a herringbone LVT using smaller planks? I found a 9 inch long plank but it is glue down and I am not sure the durability or reliability of gluing in pattern. I'd prefer a click in plank.
