Choosing a style of flooring is dependent upon your taste, whether it is light coloured, reddish-brown or even a darker tone for a vintage look.

They will add beauty to your home but also last for a long time because of their durability.

This means that the floor boards will not need to be glued, stapled or nailed to the floor. The tongue and grove system allow the floor boards to fit together with a snap. Parquet Our designed parquets are glued to the floor and need preparation beforehand. Our installation team will ensure that the floor surface is properly cleaned and the surface is even before laying down the boards.

To protect the surface of the wood, it is highly recommended not to wear high- heeled shoes or to drag furniture on the planks to avoid scratching.
