Choosing a laying pattern
The same product looks entirely different in a straight plank lay versus a herringbone. Patterns add labour and waste — usually 10–15% more material and up to double the fitting time — so we cost them separately and show you what each option means before you commit.
In narrow Fife hallways, running a herringbone lengthways draws the eye down the hall; a brick bond across the width makes it feel wider. We mark it out on the floor with tape at survey if you want to see it.
Where Amtico earns its price
- Open-plan kitchen-diners where one continuous floor ties the space together
- Hallways that take the whole family's outdoor shoes
- Homes wanting stone or concrete looks without cold, hard tile
- Anywhere a designer pattern would cost far more in real timber or stone
