Some Frequently Asked Questions About

More help...
  • How long will my solid wood parquet floor last?

    A well-maintained and professionally restored parquet floor can last for many decades, often exceeding 50 years, and even over a century in some historical properties. The longevity primarily depends on the quality of the original installation, the type of wood used (harder woods like oak tend to last longer), and crucially, the level of ongoing maintenance and care. Regular cleaning, prompt addressing of spills, and avoiding abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture are vital. Furthermore, the frequency of professional restoration, including re-sanding and re-finishing, significantly extends its lifespan.

  • 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.

  • Do you lay Karndean flooring?

    Yes. Floorworks provides installation service for most Karndean flooring product.

  • How long does a typical installation take?

    Standard-sized room (15−25 sq. metres), the installation itself can often be completed in one day. However, this doesn't include subfloor preparation (e.g., waiting for levelling compound to dry), which can add extra time. Hallways with multiple doors and kitchen areas can take longer time to complete.

    All our Floorworks™ technicians are carefully vetted to ensure they meet the highest standards of quality and professionalism.
