Our Oak Parquet Blocks Grading System

If you are planning to buy wooden flooring, then you make yourself familiar with timber gradings. The UK has a standard with 3 levels of grading.

• Rustic Grade Parquet Blocks - rich, vivid character allowing random size and form of knots and colour variation between the blocks;
• Natural Grade Parquet Blocks - more calm, natural feeling of the timber, allowing limited sized knots of up to 5 mm and almost no colour variation between the blocks;
• Prime Grade Parquet Blocks - clean oak timber without colour variation between the blocks; knots of 1 mm may appear randomly on 1 of 5 blocks.

Reclaimed or New Oak Blocks?

We get often approached by people thinking of installing reclaimed blocks - actually, so often that we have decided to say something about it on our website as well. Reclaimed Oak blocks can be cheaper, or more expensive than new oak blocks, but in any case, installing such should be out of the question, unless they are certain how they go about it.

Parquet flooring comes to market after timber has been carefully dried and checked before production. Blocks are stored in purpose-built warehouses, which will protect the product from increasing its moisture contents. By bidding happily on eBay or taking the freebie bags of blocks from your cousin's shed, you are risking to spend thousands of pounds on fitting and refinishing products, which may not be suitable for use in the condition it is.

When reclaimed blocks are laid together, they will be placed in a location different from before and therefore some blocks may be higher than other throughout the floors. The amount of sanding time and consumables required to level such floors may sometimes triple the effort of finishing new oak parquet flooring.

Final results will be acceptable, but far from what you would have joyed for, just like the bill.

Basics of Parquet Flooring Installation

Some of our clients of parquet flooring have previous flooring experience, but some do not. So, here are some important points that should not be missed on parquet floor installations.

• Parquet blocks require a perfect level. If your subfloor is concrete, which has damage and unevenness, do not resolve it with self-levelling compound, it is a common mistake - take advise of your builders. Uneven wooden subfloors are always advisable to be plied or chipboarded prior to fitting.
• Apply liquid DPM on concrete subfloors.
• Parquet blocks are natural, unfinished product - allow up to 5 days for flooring acclimatisation in colder seasons.
