Parquet Flooring in Hyde
Parquet flooring is a kind of wood flooring where small wood blocks or strips are installed together to produce a distinctive design across the entirety of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with each individual strip painstakingly laid, but modern parquet is available in bigger tiles or planks to provide the same effect. Parquet floor is an exceptionally fashionable flooring option which is most effective in large rooms or hallways where the appealing design can be best displayed. Parquet comes in a multitude of different patterns, the most common of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can be manufactured from a wide variety of different woods, but oak is the most popular, followed by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor may come in either solid wood or engineered wood variations, 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 floor 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 commonly installed using a number of tiles that are fixed to the subfloor with an adhesive. A professional parquet flooring company will be able to recommend the most appropriate wood types and styles for your home.
