5 steps to restore your parquet floor
If you've discovered beautiful parquet flooring under your old carpets, then you have hidden treasure. Newly installed parquet is expensive and can lack the sheer beauty of aged wood.
However, the likelihood is that your parquet floor will be in need of some repair. If so, here's a handy five step guide to parquet flooring restoration.
1. Check the floor
Some damage will be obvious, for example where blocks have been removed to make way for central heating. Other damage may only become apparent when you walk on the floor. You'll need to source replacements - salvage yards can be a good place to look - and make sure they match with the existing wood and pattern.
2. Cleaning up
Original parquet floors were laid using bitumen, a black tar-like substance. This will need to be removed from all loose flooring blocks and the subfloor itself before you can start to lay new blocks. There's no easy way to do this beyond chiselling and scraping so think of it as a labour of love! Check the floor for level and use a levelling compound if necessary.
3. Re-install missing flooring
Use a notched tiling trowel to spread a parquet adhesive on the floor and then start to lay your blocks. Take your time to match the pattern as accurately as possible, and then firm the blocks in, one by one, wiping away any excess adhesive with a cloth.
If you need to cut blocks to size, don't worry about removing the tongue as the adhesive will secure the blocks firmly in place.
4. Sanding your parquet
You'll need to hire a belt sander and an edging sander - using dust free floor sanding machinery is the smart choice - and vacuum the floor thoroughly before you start. Use a 40-80-120 grit sequence for best results and start your floor sanding heading from wall to wall in one direction, before turning through 90 degrees and sanding from wall to wall in the other direction. You could also use a floor buffer and grit screen for the final sanding pass.
5. Finish your floor
The finish you use is up to you and will be dictated by your lifestyle and the amount of traffic the floor will be expected to take, but using oil on reclaimed floors really allows their beauty to shine through. Apply your chosen oil with a squeegee and then buff lightly for a gorgeous new floor!
