Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is herringbone tile pattern expensive?

Herringbone tile can cost a bit more than other styles due to the complexity and craftsmanship of fitting the pattern.

2. Does herringbone make a room look bigger or smaller?

Herringbone flooring tiles can give an impression of more space due to the patterns’ diagonal lines and angles, particularly in smaller and narrower rooms.

3. Is herringbone tile the same as chevron tile?

The two are similar but not the same. For herringbone tile pattern, two identical rectangular tiles meet at their ends, forming a 90 degree angle. Chevron tiles, on the other hand, are created using tiles with their edges cut diagonally to create a consistent zigzag pattern.
