Parquet Flooring in Tyn-y-gongl

Parquet flooring is a kind of wood flooring in which small wood blocks or strips are installed alongside one another to create a distinctive design over the entirety of the floor. Parquet was traditionally installed with every individual strip painstakingly laid, but modern parquet can be bought in larger tiles or planks to provide the same effect. Parquet floor is a very elegant flooring product which works best 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 also be manufactured from a huge selection of different woods, but oak is the most common, accompanied by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet flooring may come in either solid wood or engineered wood varieties, 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 demands 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 using a number of tiles that are glued to the subfloor with an adhesive.
