Parquet Flooring in Willenhall
Parquet flooring is a kind of wood flooring where small wood blocks or strips are installed alongside one another to generate a distinctive design over the entirety of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with every individual strip carefully laid, but modern parquet can be bought in larger tiles or planks to give the same effect. Parquet floor is an extremely fashionable flooring solution which is best suited for large rooms or hallways where the attractive design can be best showcased. Parquet comes in numerous different styles, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can be manufactured from an enormous array of different woods, but oak is the most common, followed by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor will come in either solid wood or engineered wood varieties, the latter of which feature several sheets of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet flooring is durable and needs little maintenance. It is, however, inappropriate for areas that contain lots of moisture or humidity as the wood will warp or flex under these conditions. Parquet is generally installed by using a series of tiles that are fixed to the subfloor with an adhesive. An experienced parquet floor company can suggest the most appropriate wood types and designs for your home.
