Parquet Flooring in Caersws
Parquet flooring is a sort of wood flooring where small wood blocks or strips are installed together to create a distinctive design over the whole of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with every individual strip painstakingly laid, but modern parquet is available in bigger tiles or planks to give the same appearance. Parquet floor is an extremely elegant flooring solution which works best in large rooms or hallways where the appealing pattern can be best exhibited. Parquet comes in a multitude of different patterns, the most common of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can be manufactured from a massive range of different woods, but oak is the most popular, followed by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor comes in either solid wood or engineered wood varieties, the latter of which incorporate several sheets of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet flooring is durable and needs little maintenance. It is, however, not fit for areas that contain lots of moisture or humidity as the wood will warp or bend under these conditions. Parquet is typically installed by using a series of tiles that are glued to the subfloor with an adhesive. An expert parquet flooring company can suggest the most appropriate wood types and designs for your home.
