Our sales of oak parquet flooring are available throughout Lancaster - all you have to do is choose your product size and grade and give us a call or complete your order online - as easy as this.

Our parquet flooring comes in various sizes. The smaller ones - 70 x 230 x 20 mm, 70 x 280 x 20 mm are suitable for smaller rooms, and 70 x 350 x 20 mm oak may look better on larger rooms. All our blocks come with tongue & groove fitting, which is located in a lower position, for better sandable depth and respectively longer life span.

Each pack of flooring contains the same number of left & right-oriented tongue & grooved blocks. This design is ideal for parquet flooring installation in a herringbone pattern. However, the blocks can be fitted in square and other patterns as well.

And when it comes to grading, there is a bit to offer for everyone - we do Prime, Natural and Rustic grades. Not sure, how timber grading works? Check our oak parquet flooring blocks product descriptions or speak to a member of staff.

How to Prepare for Parquet Flooring Fitting?

Do you feel confident in parquet flooring installations? This type of flooring has a bit more to think about before you do, so make sure you have the right experience or have received proper advice by professional parquet floor fitter. Here are a few common tips about parquet floor installations:

• Parquet flooring is after the perfect level of the subfloor. Make sure you have done well your work on subfloor preparation before starting fitting.
• Liquid DPM should be applied on concrete subfloors to protect blocks from moisture.
• Parquet blocks are unfinished timber products and allowing few days for acclimatisation before installation is highly recommended in autumn, winter and spring.
• Engineered parquet flooring comes prefinished and it is important to use glues which are easy to remove. Speak to a member of staff for advice.

New or Reclaimed Blocks?

Oak parquet flooring like any other wooden product is sensitive to moisture and therefore it is of great importance to be stored in dry places until used. Such places are supplier's warehouses, but cannot be garages, sheds, gardens, lofts or other places where people in Lancaster would normally store things they do not need any more.

This real-life example of how thousands of pounds can be wasted in fitting "free reclaimed blocks from my uncle's house" or "the cheap oak blocks I bid on eBay", can, later on, show how they can buckle up or crack, just weeks after the floor installation.

Let's not forget as well that sanding parquet blocks of different heights, will take much more consumables and time than finishing new blocks. This is just one example, showing why fitting reclaimed blocks will be much more expensive than new blocks.

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.
