Parquet Flooring in Deal

Parquet flooring is a sort of wood flooring in which 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 carefully laid, but modern parquet can be bought in bigger tiles or planks to offer the same effect. Parquet floor is an extremely stylish flooring solution which is best suited for large rooms or hallways where the appealing design can be best displayed. Parquet is available in a wide variety of different patterns, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can also be manufactured from a massive range of different woods, but oak is the most popular, followed by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor can come in either solid wood or engineered wood styles, the latter of which function several sheets of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet flooring is durable and requires 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 commonly installed using a number of tiles that are fixed to the subfloor with an adhesive.
