Engineered Flooring Repairs

Yes, you can have parquet flooring with underfloor heating, but it's crucial to choose the right type of parquet and ensure correct installation. While solid wood parquet can be problematic due to its tendency to expand and contract significantly with temperature changes, engineered parquet flooring is specifically designed to be compatible with underfloor heating systems. Its multi-layered construction provides much greater stability, resisting warping and gapping caused by fluctuating temperatures.

Laying parquet with underfloor heating requires glue-down installatio and key considerations include maintaining the correct surface temperature (typically not exceeding 27°C), ensuring the subfloor is properly prepared and dry.

The cost to restore your stairs can vary significantly based on several factors, typically ranging from £800 to £1,200 or more for an average staircase. The main determinants of price include the condition of the stairs, the chosen finish (lacquer, oil or paint), and the complexity of the staircase design. Materials for high-quality finishes also contribute to the cost. For stairs, it's always best to obtain a detailed quote after a site visit, to get an accurate cost tailored to your specific staircase.

Yes, unfinished herringbone products can have single or double border from same wood, with or without brass insert between the pattern and the border.

On prefinished herringbone products border is not recommended, as these products are usually grooved, which creates a risk for the maintenance and longevity of the floors. Having a brass or other metal insert however, can help this issue.

Stripping and resealing stairs is a meticulous process that typically takes between 2 to 4 days for an average staircase (around 12-15 steps). The duration depends heavily on the condition of the existing finish, the type of previous coating (which affects how easily it strips), and the complexity of the staircase design (e.g., spindles, intricate newel posts).
