The parquet floor is elegant, durable and long-lasting. It has always been considered a classic way of floor installation where small wooden blocks or strips of wood are put together in a regular pattern. Most famously wood parquets were used in the decoration of Versailles, the residence of the French king Louis XIV. Since then parquet flooring has become a symbol of style and quality, because of its aristocratic roots.
A well-made parquet floor is something unique, almost a work of art. If you try to restore say, a damaged painting or broken statue you don’t try to do it yourself. The risk is simply too great! No, you go to a professional with the proper equipment to prevent any further damage. Parquet flooring is not only a beautiful piece of furniture. It’s an investment! Good investments must be tended to, so they bear fruits and continue to serve their purpose for as long as possible, it doesn't matter how well you maintain your floor. Eventually, time will take its toll on it and it will require restoration.
When you claim to know everything about wooden flooring as we do, you must see it as a whole. The process of a true restoration is not simply to smooth the floor surface and apply some finish on top. There is a lot more involved. Careful inspection is needed to check If there are any loose, missing or squeaky blocks. Then comes the replacement of those blocks, which may cause the underfloor to become uneven. After levelling the underfloor, the wood pattern has to be restored and that has to be done with precision because gaps may appear. Only once you are sure that the blocks are firmly in place can you begin the actual process of sanding. Our experts can then use their professional equipment to polish the floor easily and with minimal effort. Gaps between the blocks have to be filled until finally a finish can be applied.
It’s as hard as it may sound on paper, but in the end floor restoration, especially of parquet floors is a delicate work that better not be left to a person without the needed skills and preparation.
