Weathered Oak Chevron - 14/3mm Corsica Engineered Timber Flooring

Weathered Oak is not the rough silvered grey most people picture from the name. It is a muted pale greige with a soft grey-green cast running under it: the smoothest, calmest and most neutral of the four Godfrey Hirst Corsica Chevron colours, with only faint knots and very little tonal shift between boards. That restraint is deliberate and it is what makes it work: a chevron floor is already a strong pattern, and a quiet colour lets the geometry do the work instead of fighting it. If you want visible character and knots, Coastal Oak is the one to compare it against.

This is a true chevron rather than a herringbone. The boards are cut on an angle so their ends meet in a continuous unbroken point down the room, supplied as matched left and right pairs. It is genuine engineered timber, not a printed look: a 3mm French Oak veneer over a 14mm multiply substrate, finished in matte UV cured lacquer with a light brush. The 3mm veneer is thick enough to be sanded back and recoated two or three times across the floor's life, which no hybrid, laminate or vinyl can do at any price.

It comes with a 25 year Godfrey Hirst timber limited residential warranty, and the veneer is PEFC Chain of Custody certified, traceable to sustainably managed forests. P4 slip rating under AS 4586, Green Building Council compliant for VOC emission limits, ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified manufacturing. Boards are delivered at 8-11% moisture content and should be acclimatised on site before laying.

Chevron takes longer to lay than straight planks and the set-out line governs the whole room, so it is worth having installed properly rather than attempted as a first project. Supply and install available across Sydney. Get in touch for a measure and quote.
