Some Frequently Asked Questions About

More help...
  • Can engineered parquet flooring be refinished?

    Yes, engineered parquet flooring can often be refinished, but its refinishing potential depends critically on the thickness of its top hardwood veneer layer (wear layer). Unlike solid parquet, which can be sanded many times, engineered parquet has a finite amount of sandable wood. If the veneer is thick enough (typically 3mm or more), it can usually be sanded and refinished at least once, and sometimes two or three times over its lifetime. A professional assessment is always recommended to determine if your specific engineered parquet floor has enough wear layer remaining for a successful restoration

  • How often is re-oiling needed for my wood floor?

    The frequency of re-oiling for your wood floor depends significantly on the level of foot traffic and the specific type of oil finish applied. In high-traffic areas like hallways, kitchens, or living rooms, re-oiling might be needed every 6 to 18 months. For areas with moderate traffic, every 1-3 years might suffice, while in low-traffic zones such as bedrooms, a re-oil might only be necessary every 3-5 years or even longer.

  • Can LVT be used with underfloor heating?

    Most LVT products are compatible with underfloor heating systems, but it's crucial to check the manufacturer's specific guidelines regarding maximum temperature limits (typically not exceeding 27-29°C) to prevent warping or damage.

  • How often should I have my parquet floors restored?

    The frequency of professional restoration for your parquet floors largely depends on the level of wear and tear they experience. For residential properties with moderate foot traffic, a full re-sanding and re-finishing might be needed every 7 to 15 years. In high-traffic areas or commercial spaces, this could be more frequent, perhaps every 3-7 years. Conversely, in very low-traffic areas like bedrooms, a full restoration might only be necessary every 15-20 years or even longer.

  • Is engineered flooring waterproof? Can it be used in bathrooms?

    Standard engineered flooring is water-resistant, not waterproof. While it handles ambient moisture in a kitchen well, it is generally not recommended for full bathrooms where standing water and high humidity are common. Some specialised "hydro" or water-resistant engineered wood products are available for this purpose.
