Reclaimed or New Blocks?

We are often approached by clients looking for parquet floor laying service in Swansea of reclaimed blocks or just asking us if that is a good idea at all. Sometimes they can be found cheaper, sometimes more expensive than new oak parquet flooring blocks, but in any case, it is not right to install reclaimed blocks, because this hides potential problems and normally, the cost of service will be much higher compared to fitting new blocks.

New blocks have come to market after timber has been carefully prepared and checked before production. Blocks are stored by suppliers normally in purpose-built warehouses, which protect the product from gaining higher moisture content. By bidding on eBay or taking the bags of blocks from your neighbour's garage you are risking to pay for a product that was improperly stored, which will cause issues after the fitting is finished.

On the other hand, when reclaimed blocks are laid together, they will not be in the same location as before and therefore some blocks may be higher than others throughout the floors. To resolve this, a serious sanding process will be carried out in order to smoothen the floors. Such service will require more consumables and therefore cost more.

The end result, will not be the same as having new blocks laid and the final cost will go well over the cost of laying new blocks.

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.
