To date, there are a lot of varieties of flooring. But I want to talk about the old and good parquet.
All parquet is necessarily associated with luxury and wealth, because in ancient times it was the only material made of wood that looked gorgeous and brilliant. Moreover, his styling was a very difficult matter. But now everything has changed a lot, and its styling has already ceased to be so difficult.
But let’s dwell on the pluses and minuses of the parquet compared to other floor coverings.
Pros.
1. The color scheme of the parquet is quite wide: from white to dark cherry. In addition, for the human eye it is quite pleasant.
2. Absolutely amazing patterns and ornaments can be laid out from parquet boards, which cannot be achieved with other floor coverings.
3. Due to the very low thermal conductivity, the parquet, in winter, you can walk barefoot on it, feeling it warmth.
4. Unlike laminate, the parquet has a lower sound conductivity, which allows you to move around it absolutely silently.
5. Parquet is also excellent impact resistance: it is impossible to split it.
6. Parquet, despite its apparent fragility, is very resistant to mechanical damage. Thus, if scratches were formed on it from the movement of furniture, they are very easy and simply eliminated by the use of restoration.
7. Parquet is an absolutely environmentally friendly material that does not cause allergies.
Cons.
1. Parquet needs a certain temperature regime. It will serve you for the most long time if the room has from 18 to 23 degrees Celsius.
2. Parquet boards are sensitive to moisture, so do not abuse wet cleaning.
