Excellent video. Would it be possible next time to go into details about 2 specific items that were briefly covered:
1. How and why you chose the chalk like location (probably it's the longest run) and the parallel line is a multiple of the width of the herringbone pattern but not covered.
2. How you placed the boards and then measured the cuts around the radiator.
Thanks Arthur...im working out how to do more professional editing showing whole job and also zoomed on details. So still learning on editing.
1. I made the chalk line in the middle o the hallway and meassured it parallel to the hallway wall and also from that i did other line to see if its gona be paraller with kitchen units..thats why 2 lines.
2. I simply take tape measure or ideally metal long ruler and meassure where exacly the middle of the pipe is fro last ful board. I dont use a jig or anything like that just measuring up and marking on new board. I will at some point make a video only for that " how to do floor around radiator pipes" cos it would be useful for people to see this. Thanks for a comment bro!
🤩 amazing job mate, great video 👍
Thank you jamie, do you think this style of editing is a bit better?
1. Showing job done first
2. Then talking about the job whats about to happen.
3. Then on fast forward me doing the job.
4. Do some slow zoom in shots.
5. Then again showing job done at the end.
Do you think it works? Be my feed back man here :)
@@FinePineNorwichCarpenter really good mate, loved it!
Great job, how many days did the floor take to install looks complicated
Thank you kevin....it took full 7 days of work from priming the concrete to fitting all skirting boards.
Which direction is best to lay the herringbone, herringbone facing the windows or herringbone across the windows? I have an "L" shaped room, windows and sliding doors along the long side, a family room area with no windows on the short side of the "L".
Mojarity choose to do herringbone long way so if your back is touching a shorter wall ans looking straight in a long room you d see V shape...regardless of where windows are...but i like personally accross the room from left to right. So id do in your room accross the windows to opposite wall...hope that helps! good luck and thanks for a comment!
Great work,can i ask what glue you used please

Can parquet be used in kitchens? How long would it take to install herringbone parquet in four rooms?
Yeah many of my clients have kitchen floor done with parquet and there is no problem with that....it takes about 2 days to do standard room 👍
Amazing job just curious why arnt you leaving expansion gaps at the edges
Thanks for your compliment and for watching. It may not be clear in the video but there is 5-7mm gap all around :)
Still learning the edit how to show small details. Thanks for feedback!
How do you fill in the starting triangles if you don’t do them at the start of a herringbone 5gi click installation?
When i do click herringbone i shave/scrape tiny round bit from the "tongue" and by doing that the board from "click" turns into "tongue and groove" flooring which means you can than slide flat the tongue board into groove boards without clicking at an angle. But i add wood glue for securing that joint.
With this flooring in rhis video its all tongue and groove so i was able to fill little trimgle at the end withiut any shaving tongues...it all slides flat into the groove board....
Thing is that when you start flooring with little triangles first than its hard to keep parrarel line of rest of the herringbone with the long wall. Its easy to go at wrong angle. But when you start with flull rows of V shape herringbone then you can easly have pararel line of boards with big long wall cos you have chalk line. Hope it makes sense and really good technical question thanks!
