What is Chevron pattern wood flooring?

A Chevron pattern wood floor is made with floorboards of equal width and length, where the ends are cut at angles so that two adjoining boards form a perfect V. The result is a stunning geometric pattern that resembles a string of arrows running across the entire floor in a zigzag motion, providing energy and visual appeal while helping to make smaller rooms seem larger.

Can Chevron floors be prefinished?

Yes. Prefinished or precut Chevron wood flooring is an excellent option. With a prefinished Chevron floor, all of the intricate cuts as well as the sanding, staining and sealing can take place in our facility under ideal conditions. Once your floor is completed, we ship it to your site where it can be quickly installed without the usual mess and inconvenience involved in finishing a floor on site.

Can engineered flooring be installed with a Chevron pattern?

Engineered flooring can make a great Chevron pattern wood floor. Engineered floorboards at Carlisle are made with a thick veneer of hardwood that’s adhered to multiple layers of backing material, forming a plank that is more resistant to moisture, humidity and temperature fluctuation. Engineered floors are ideal for installation below grade, over radiant heat and on concrete slab.

What kind of wood is best for Chevron floors?

Chevron floors can be made with any species that is normally used to create a wood floor. Each species of wood has its own personality with variations in grain patterns and hues. Your Carlisle design consultant can help you select the type of hardwood or pine that will help you realize your aesthetic vision for your interior.

Choosing the wood for your Chevron floor

At Carlisle, you can design a Chevron hardwood floor from 10 different species of wood.

• White Oak is a versatile and dense wood with dramatic grain patterns that range from simple and sleek lines to vibrant swirls.
• Red Oak hardwood offers deep, salmon tones with tight consistent grain.
• Ash makes for highly dense floors and comes in colors that range from cream to light blonde to rich nutty brown hues.
• Birch offers grain patterns that run from highly figured flames to subtle swirls, with hues that combine blonde outer edges and warm amber portions.
• Brown Maple floors are cut from the oldest part of the timber to produce a distinctive brown heartwood with subtle and consistent grain patterns.
• White Maple delivers strikingly beautiful grain patterns reminiscent of flowing water, with clean and lighter hues that provide a more neutral finish.
• Cherry floors have a deep, glowing red color that will darken to a rich, burnished auburn color as the floor ages.
• Hickory has a tensile strength that rivals steel, with hues that range from lighter blonde sapwood to cocoa brown and beige hardwood.
• Walnut offers rich mocha hues and complex grain patterns that make it suitable for any setting – from rustic country kitchens to elegant formal sitting rooms.
• Rift & Quartersawn White Oak produces strikingly beautiful floors that can be finished with almost any stain color. Special cutting techniques produce straight parallel lines in the grain with vibrant ray flecks that radiate across each board.
