New Laminates Vs Restoring Existing Parquet?

Featured Replies

I hv been contemplating putting onto my existing parquet floor with Laminates.

Almost did it..

BUT friends asked me to check with MRWOODVARNISH. After hearing out advice & survey my place FOC !!

Final decision i go with Restoration of parquet. benefits & life span of parquet worth many time laminates.

That's what i learnt.

If the parquet got gaps then forget it, i think. Unless there is way to fill-up the gaps

:paint: perhaps u like to know i actually get the parquet specialist to do up my old parquet flooring to brand new hassle & DUST Free. Just amazing & pro. i tried many ppl like Jason Parquet, WD, etc.. just not offering individual household repairs, restoration, varnish jobs. i found one company, professional and delivers good result @ reasonable rates.

Highly recommended ! MR WOOD VARNISH, {tel: 1-800-VARNISH} FREE onsite survey

i learnt (many who share same 'bad' experiences) for reno, always use the PROS or SPECIALIST n ask for written warranty n work process. one can not possibly spend weeks watching 24/7 the Contractors' work

General Contractors < X > dun use them if u can.

Good luck ! To Beautiful home..

For those who read this thread, I can recommned a wood flooring specialist company who also provide fee consultation and advice on wood flooring and since they can deal direct with the house owner, you can save the "middle man fee" between the contractor who sub out these job to this company.

Please email me at alfred.cheong@live.com for the contact detail.
