The range of works needed for a professional floor fitting is one that requires the skills and knowledge of an experienced craftsman. Fitting parquet and other natural wooden floors requires many years of active participation in fitting projects.
Having undertaken many floor installations and fittings throughout the years, our specialists possess the experience, knowledge and skills needed to do the job right. Achieving great quality and endurance in every floor is our main priority.
How we fit our floors:
- We examine the condition of the subfloor to determine if any work needs to be done on it prior to fitting.
- We carefully measure the room.
- To maximise efficiency, we start laying the blocks and floorboards in the centre of the room.
- We always leave at least a 10 mm space between the last board and the wall. This is due to the natural expanding capabilities of wood.
- Wood friendly tools are used to get the blocks and floorboards to tightly fit into place.
- We always fill expansion gaps using strips at the edges of the floor.
- We glue the blocks and floorboards to the subfloor adhesive.
- The floor is then sanded to create a level and even surface.
- We apply several layers of coatings (hardwax oil or varnish), sanding in between each layer to ensure the surface is level.
If you are thinking of choosing us to fit your new parquet floor, please give us a call or send us an e-mail. We might ask you to provide us with some details of the work to be done, like the space to be floored and the type of parquet you'd like to have, so that we can give you an estimation of the price.
