Parquet Flooring in Wolverhampton
Parquet flooring is a kind of wood flooring where small wood blocks or strips are installed together to make a distinctive design across the whole of the floor. Parquet was traditionally installed with each individual strip meticulously laid, but modern parquet can be purchased in bigger tiles or planks to offer the same appearance. Parquet floor is an exceptionally stylish flooring solution which is best suited for large rooms or hallways where the appealing design can be best exhibited. Parquet is available in numerous different patterns, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet may also be manufactured from a wide selection of different woods, but oak is the most common, accompanied by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor will 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 flooring is durable and requires 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 typically installed utilising a series of tiles which are glued to the subfloor with an adhesive. A professional parquet floor company will be able to suggest the most appropriate wood types and styles for your home.
