Parquet Flooring in Lybster
Parquet flooring is a sort of wood flooring where small wood blocks or strips are installed alongside one another to produce a distinctive pattern across the entirety of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with every individual strip meticulously laid, but modern parquet is available in larger tiles or planks to provide the same effect. Parquet floor is a very elegant flooring option which is most effective in large rooms or hallways where the attractive design can be best exhibited. Parquet is available in a wide variety of different styles, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can also be manufactured from an enormous variety of different woods, but oak is the most popular, accompanied by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet flooring may come in either solid wood or engineered wood variations, the latter of which feature several layers of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet floor 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 often installed by using a number of tiles that are fixed to the subfloor with an adhesive. An expert parquet flooring company can suggest the most appropriate wood types and styles for your home.
