Product Description
For those seeking to create a timeless yet modern interior, Castro Alexandria Oak Herringbone offers the perfect balance of natural charm and contemporary sophistication. Available from FloorStore Direct, Ireland’s leading destination for engineered floors, herringbone flooring, and hardwood floors, this elegant oak design will instantly elevate the character of any room.
Crafted to perfection, Castro Alexandria Oak Herringbone is a 15mm thick engineered floor built for both beauty and longevity. The engineered construction combines multiple layers of wood for enhanced stability, making it ideal for Irish homes where temperature and humidity can fluctuate. It must be glued directly to the subfloor, ensuring a firm, stable installation that will stand the test of time. Suitable for underfloor heating, this herringbone design blends craftsmanship and practicality seamlessly — perfect for homeowners who refuse to compromise on quality or comfort.
What truly distinguishes this stunning engineered herringbone floor is its light stain, which enhances the oak’s natural tones to create a bright, inviting aesthetic. The brushed finish highlights the authentic texture of the wood grain, giving it depth and tactile appeal, while the matt lacquer seals the surface with a subtle sheen that both protects and enhances the wood’s character. The result is a floor that radiates warmth and refinement — a beautiful complement to modern minimalist interiors, Scandinavian-style homes, or even more classic country settings.
The herringbone pattern itself brings architectural beauty to your space. Its geometric arrangement adds rhythm and movement, guiding the eye through the room and creating a sense of craftsmanship that only real wood can offer. Whether featured in a hallway, living area, or open-plan space, Castro Alexandria Oak Herringbone will add an undeniable touch of elegance and heritage.
Its rustic grading celebrates the natural beauty of oak in all its glory. Expect subtle variations in colour, natural knots, and traces of sapwood — each piece of timber telling its own story. This authenticity ensures your hardwood floor feels organic, inviting, and truly unique, making it a centrepiece in your home for decades to come.

Recommend Adhesive
Our Engineered Herringbone must be directly glued to the subfloor. This will provide a more solid and stable structure that will increase noise reduction, feel better underfoot and will not expand as much. In the long term it will also provide structural stability during any floor sanding. If you have underfloor heating a glued down floor eliminates air pockets and will then allow your heating to work more economically. You can view all our adhesives here.
Fitting Guidelines
In order for your new floor to perform to the best of its ability we advise using a skilled, professional fitter for the installation of your new floor. Prior to installation your floor must be checked to ensure it is level and free from moisture. Should there be any issues with this our levelling compounds and damp proof membranes are available here. It is vitally important, in particular with a floating floor that you do not fit any heavy objects (Such as fitted kitchens or islands) directly to the floor. An installation gap of 10-12mm must also be left around all 4 sides of the room including at doorways. Please refer to manufacturers guidelines for full installation instructions.
Cleaning & Maintenance Guide
The cleaning and maintenance of our Castro Herringbone is pretty much the same as with most Engineered Flooring. A sweep of a brush is all it should take to remove light dirt from your floor. For mopping, it is important you use a damp mop rather than a wet mop. If your floor is too wet, over time it may cause issues from water penetrating the joints. We advise the use of a PH neutral floor cleaner to ensure no damage to the floor. Also a spin mop or micro fibre mop should ensure the floor is not being overly wet.
