Parquet Flooring in Penicuik

Parquet flooring is a kind of wood flooring in which small wood blocks or strips are installed together to create a distinctive pattern over the whole of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with every individual strip painstakingly laid, but modern parquet can be purchased in larger tiles or planks to give the same effect. Parquet floor is an exceptionally elegant flooring option which works best in large rooms or hallways where the eye-catching pattern can be best showcased. Parquet comes in numerous different patterns, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can also be manufactured from a wide variety of different woods, but oak is the most popular, accompanied by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor comes 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 flooring is durable and demands little maintenance. It is, however, not suitable for areas that contain lots of moisture or humidity as the wood will warp or flex under these conditions. Parquet is commonly installed using a number of tiles which are fixed to the subfloor with an adhesive. An expert parquet floor company can advise you of the most suitable wood types and designs for your home.

Penicuik

On the A701 lies Penicuik (pronounced 'Pennycook no matter its spelling), a town in Midlothian, Scotland with a population of around 15,700. Set in between Edinburgh and Peebles, the settlement was established as a planned village in 1770 by Sir James Clerk of Penicuik, ending up being a burgh in 1867. Its original regional industry were its well-known paper mills, with the last of these winding up in 2004. The town name, Penicuik, is stemmed from 'Pen Y Cog', meaning specifically, 'Hill of the Cuckoo' in Ancient British. The small town does have its overseas links, and is twinned with the town of L'îsle-sur-la-Sourge in France. The first occasion of the mention of the town was in 1296. Thomas Rymer's text Foedera points to a 'Walter Edgar a person Penicok south of Edenburgh', and is exactly what the town's name evolved from and into today's spelling. Pennycook, another step on the ladder of Penicuik's spelling evolution, appears on John Adair's map from 1862. Nevertheless, in the background of the town itself, full growth started when the Cowan family arrived around 1770, and brought the industry of their paper mill. This brought the requirement for houses for workers, triggering general population increasing to 1,700 by 1800. Penicuik was also used as the site of a prison camp for soldiers from the French Napoleonic wars, but in our present day, it is presently the site of a housing development. Nevertheless, a monolith dated back to 1830 celebrates the 309 detainees who died there during the years 1811-1814. For all your house upgrades, make sure to make use of trustworthy contractors in Penicuik to make certain of quality.
