Flooring and parquet Guide: Everything You Need to Know

Flooring is the most-touched surface that defines both the look and daily comfort of a space. Correct product choice and proper subfloor preparation are the key to flooring lasting for years without problems.

Laminate, Solid and Engineered

Laminate is economical and durable, solid wood is natural and sandable, while engineered parquet resists moisture movement better than solid.

Level the Subfloor

The screed must be crack-free, flat and dust-free; level it with self-levelling compound if needed. An uneven base makes the floor move and creak.

Moisture Measurement Is a Must

Laying flooring without measuring screed moisture is the main cause of buckling and swelling; do not start before the base is dry enough.

Underlay and Vapor Barrier

The underlay laid beneath the floor provides sound insulation and walking comfort; on ground floors a vapor barrier blocks moisture from below.

Leave an Expansion Gap

Flooring expands with temperature and humidity; leaving a few millimeters at the walls prevents buckling, and the skirting hides this gap.

Skirting and Transition Profiles

Skirting finishes edges cleanly and hides the expansion gap; using profiles at room transitions protects the flooring edge.

Advantages

Warm and Comfortable: Wood-based flooring does not feel cold underfoot and gives a space a warm, inviting feel.

Easy Installation: Click-system flooring installs quickly with little waste when the existing base is suitable.

Renewable Surface: Solid and thick engineered parquet can be sanded and refinished years later to look new again.
