Will it suit your home?
Straight answers, from the manufacturer’s own documents.
- Bathrooms & laundriesNot suitable
Not for bathrooms, laundries or other moisture-prone rooms; the warranty doesn't allow wet-area installs.
- Underfloor heatingWith conditions
Suits hydronic heated slabs only, glued down; other heating types aren't covered, so check your system with us first.
- Sanding & refinishingCan be sanded
Yes, it can be sanded and refinished; use a professional sanding and polishing contractor.
- Pets & high trafficWith care
Lacquered oak will scratch and dent with pets; the brushed ultra-matte finish hides fine marks, and trimmed claws and mats help.
- Apartments (acoustic)Rating not confirmed
No acoustic test results are published; in an apartment it needs a tested underlay system, so check with us and your strata first.
Conditions apply; we’ll confirm for your room at the measure.
About this floor
Coastal cottages and country homes suit Boathouse. The herringbone looks relaxed and slightly rustic, with light brown oak softened by an ashy, weathered cast.
Castel Nuovo is engineered European oak in a classic herringbone. The blocks are 600 × 120mm and 14mm thick, with a 3mm oak top layer on an 11mm cross-laid multi-ply core, supplied as left and right tongue-and-groove pieces. Each block is brushed and finished in nine coats of Sherwin-Williams ultra-matte lacquer, and the grade allows tight, filled knots and natural variation. Twelve colours are offered, from bright white to near-black, and they match Project Oak and Lavanda Oak so pattern and plank can run through one home. Herringbone suits hallways, living rooms and period homes, but it takes longer to lay and needs more waste than a straight plank. It cannot be floated: it is glued down or stapled/nailed to a suitable subfloor. Floor heating is accepted only in a hydronic heated slab, so check the details with us first. Not for wet areas. Warranty: lifetime (25-year limited) structural and 20-year residential coating, subject to the manufacturer's installation and care conditions.
