Karndean Knight Tile Herringbone Flooring

Bringing the WOW factor to your home or business.

 A Timeless and Durable Choice

A little about our latest Karndean project in leicestershire.

We supplied and fitted 100m2 of Karndean knight tile herringbone flooring throughout the downstairs of a refurbished home in South Leicestershire.

‘This project looked amazing’.

Sub-floor Preparation

Prior to the installation of flooring, we prepared the concrete floor with smoothing round which was F.Balls 1200.

It is vital that a newly laid concrete screed had a moisture test. If there is moisture still present in the screed, it is necessary to use a DPM membrane under the self leveling compound.

This is exactly the procedure that I took on this project.

The DPM membrane will control the moisture coming out of the screed.

If a DPM membrane isn’t used, it is very likely that there will be complications with your floor lifting at a later date.

Installation of Karndean Knight Tile Herringbone Flooring

Installing a herringbone floor is probably one of the most technical floors that can be installed.

At DCS Flooring we are very experienced and technical installers, and we thrive on challenges. This job was great, we bounced off one another and our client loved the finished floor.

Our job was to lay the flooring to the hall, guest room and the lounge of a new 5 bedroom house.

We started by installing the border, this was decided to be 210mm (8 inch). Once the borders were completed, we then installed the main flooring inside of the borders.

Knight Tile in plank 

We installed the Karndean flooring in a plank effect in the games room and bathroom.

As you can see in the picture below, the flooring looked great, and I feel that it complimented the games room perfectly.
