Parquet Flooring in Amlwch

Parquet flooring is a sort of wood flooring where small wood blocks or strips are installed together to make a distinctive pattern across the whole of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with every individual strip meticulously laid, but modern parquet can be purchased in larger tiles or planks to give the same appearance. Parquet floor is an exceptionally fashionable flooring option which works best in large rooms or hallways where the eye-catching pattern can be best showcased. Parquet is available in a wide variety of different styles, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can be manufactured from a huge range of different woods, but oak is the most popular, along with mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor may come in either solid wood or engineered wood varieties, the latter of which incorporate several layers of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet floor is durable and needs little maintenance. It is, however, unsuitable for areas that contain lots of moisture or humidity as the wood will warp or flex under these conditions. Parquet is generally installed utilising a series of tiles that are glued to the subfloor with an adhesive. A professional parquet flooring company will be able to suggest the most suitable wood types and styles for your home.
