What is parquet flooring?

Can parquet flooring be installed over a concrete slab?

What is the difference between parquetry and parquet flooring?

The terms are used interchangeably in Australia. Parquetry generally refers to the craft of laying small timber blocks into geometric patterns, while parquet describes the finished flooring product itself.

How do I clean and maintain a parquet floor?

Sweep or vacuum regularly and clean with a barely damp mop using a pH-neutral timber floor cleaner. Avoid steam mops and excess water, place mats at entry points, and fit felt pads under furniture to prevent scratching.

Can I order a sample before purchasing?

Yes. Samples are available so you can check the colour and grain in your own lighting. You can also view the full range in our Peakhurst showroom at 7/89 Boundary Road.

How much extra should I order for wastage?

We recommend allowing an additional 5 to 10 percent over your measured area to cover cutting and wastage. Herringbone and chevron patterns generally require the higher allowance.

How long does delivery take?

Orders are typically dispatched within 1 to 3 business days, with delivery across Australia taking a further 3 to 10 business days depending on your location.
