Herringbone Floor Installation in Seattle, WA
Classic Zigzag Pattern Floors for homes and businesses across Seattle.
SEATTLE FLOORING COMPANY
Trusted Herringbone Floor Installation Specialists in Seattle
Herringbone is having its renaissance, and for good reason: the broken zigzag adds movement and depth that plain plank cannot touch. We install solid and engineered herringbone in oak, walnut, and maple across Seattle homes, from single entries to entire main floors.
Pattern floors punish imprecision, and herringbone doubly so; every block must land on perfect 90-degree geometry or the field visibly drifts. Our layout process centers patterns on sightlines and balances borders at every threshold.
Seattle Flooring Company provides herringbone floor installation services in Seattle, WA and surrounding communities like Ballard, Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, West Seattle, Bellevue, and Kirkland.

HOW WE WORK
Geometry First, Glue Second
We snap control lines from the room’s dominant sightline, dry-lay the spine, and check drift every few courses. Blocks are milled in matched pairs so tongues and grooves lock in both directions.
Site-finished herringbone is sanded as one plane, eliminating the tiny lips prefinished blocks can leave, then stained and coated to your spec. Borders and soldier courses frame rooms like a picture.

FAQS
FAQs About Herringbone Floor Installation in Seattle
Herringbone floor installation in Seattle typically runs $11 to $20 per square foot installed. Final pricing depends on block size, solid vs engineered, borders, and subfloor flatness. Seattle Flooring Company provides free on-site estimates with fixed, line-item quotes, so the price we quote is the price you pay.
Herringbone runs about 50% longer than plank installation: a typical room sequence takes 4 to 8 days including layout, adhesive cure, sanding, and finish coats.
Herringbone uses rectangular blocks that overlap in a broken zigzag; chevron blocks are angle-cut so rows meet in continuous points, reading more contemporary. We install both and can show you samples of each in your own lighting before you decide.
