HOW TO LAY OAK PARQUET CORRECTLY?
Preparation before laying
Parquet acclimatization :
Before you start laying, let the parquet packages acclimatize in the room where they will be laid. It is recommended to allow at least 48 hours in summer and 4-5 days in winter to allow the wood to adapt to local conditions.
Environmental conditions :
The ideal temperature for laying is between 18 and 20 °C with a relative humidity of between 45 and 65%.
Checking the substrate :
Ensure the substrate is dry, level and clean. Fresh concrete should dry for at least 1 week per centimeter of thickness.
Choosing a laying method
Full-surface bonding :
Use the appropriate adhesive according to the type of substrate (e.g. concrete, wood). It is important to maintain expansion joints around the entire perimeter of the room.
Floating method :
The parquets are connected using a tongue and groove system without nailing or screwing. It is important to ensure expansion joints of at least 10 mm between the parquets and the wall.
Parquet laying
Choosing the laying direction :
It is recommended to lay parquet flooring in the direction of the light or along the longest wall of the room. For patterns such as Chevron or herringbone, start from the center axis of the room.
Laying the first row :
Start with a whole parquet, cut the tongue on the long and short sides and lay it against the wall with spacers for the expansion joint. Continue with the next rows so that the short joints are not in one line, but are offset by at least 30 cm.
Finishing the installation :
After finishing the last row, don’t forget the expansion joint between the parquet and the wall. Use a hammer and a tightening hook to adjust the last pieces.
Maintenance after installation
Once the installation is complete, it is important to maintain the floor regularly to maintain its appearance and functionality. Regular cleaning and the use of appropriate protective products are recommended. By following these steps, you will ensure the correct installation of oak parquet, which will lead to its long life and the aesthetic appearance of your floor.
WHAT ARE THE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR OAK PARQUETS?
Regular cleaning
Vacuuming: Before each cleaning, it is important to vacuum the floor to remove small dirt and stones that could scratch the surface.
Use appropriate cleaning products: It is essential to use cleaning products specifically designed for wooden floors. Avoid all-purpose detergents, which can damage the floor.
Surface protection
Varnish or oil treatment: A surface treatment for parquet, such as varnishing or oiling, protects the wood from wear and tear and dirt. This protective layer wears away over time and needs to be renewed regularly.
Prevention of mechanical damage: It is recommended to install cleaning zones at entrances to minimize the transfer of sand and small stones that can damage the surface.
Deep cleaning
Resurfacing: To revive the appearance of the floor, special cleaning agents such as Bona Deep Clean Solution can be used in combination with a cleaning machine. This process does not require a complete renovation, but only a thorough cleaning.
Humidity maintenance
Ambient humidity: Wood reacts to changes in air humidity, so it is important to maintain relative humidity between 50-60% and temperature ideally between 20-24 ° C. This helps prevent the parquet from swelling or drying out.
Repairs and renovations
Re-sanding and re-varnishing: In case of mechanical damage, it may be necessary to re-sand and then re-varnish the parquet. Local repairs can be difficult and usually require a complete renovation.
By following these basic maintenance requirements, you can ensure that your oak parquet floors remain beautiful and functional for many years.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOLID AND MULTI-LAYER OAK PARQUETS?
Construction
Solid oak parquet : Made from a single piece of oak wood, this construction ensures high durability and longevity, and can be refinished several times by sanding.
Multi-layer oak parquet : Consists of several layers, with the top layer usually made of high-quality oak and the bottom layers can be made of other woods or materials. This type of construction provides greater stability to humidity and temperature changes, reducing the risk of deformation.
Installation
Solid oak parquet : Usually requires professional installation, often with glue or nailing. Can be more sensitive to moisture and temperature.
Multi-layer oak parquet : Often allows for easier installation thanks to the “click” system or floating installation method, which facilitates assembly without the need for gluing or nailing.
Durability and maintenance
Solid oak parquet : They are very durable, but require regular maintenance such as oiling or varnishing to maintain their appearance and protect against moisture. They can be more susceptible to scratches.
Multi-layer oak parquet : Due to their multi-layer composition, they are less susceptible to deformation and damage. They are usually easier to maintain and more suitable for areas with higher humidity.
The choice between solid and multi-layer oak parquet depends on personal preference, budget and the specific needs of the space. Solid floors offer traditional beauty and durability, while multi-layer options provide greater stability and easier installation.
