The parquet blocks might be fit in various patterns, depending on the aesthetical preferences of the client. In this project, our clients decided to stick with the traditional choice of the herringbone pattern, which is something our fitters are very familiar with. The oak parquet flooring supplied by our company is unfinished, which is why this must be done on-site. The refinishing process requires sanding because it will smooth and level the surface. After the timber is sanded, the wood pores are open so they can soak better the finish. This process also included filling the gaps with a mixture from sawdust remains and resin filler. Then the floor is polished again with finer sandpaper grit, to prepare it for the final two stages of the process – the staining and sealing.
Our clients wanted their parquet flooring to be in some warmer tones, which is why we recommended them a stain in medium oak. For the last step, the owners left the choice in our hands, in a result, they ended up with the durable and hard-wearing lacquer - ‘Junckers HP Commercial’. We applied 3 coats, which should be enough to keep the floor vibrant with minimal wear for the years to come. It took 6 days for our team to finish this job.
