My aunt's parquet aged really fast within years... After 15 years, now... like rotten flooring.

do u know anything abt homogenous tiles?

The wood becomes like that because of moisture, so if you are using wood/homogeneous tiles do use a tile sealer

You can seal your tiles by using something called HCL89.

I usually get it from http://hcl89.byethost10.com or http://hcl89.atwebpages.com

What it does is that it removes any stains as well as polishes your tiles and seals it. The tile sealer is important because it prevents moisture from damaging your tiles in the long run

Hope this helps you out

I noticed this as well, it very hard to try to find other types of woods

Parquet seems to always turn out this way although it may look rather nice but there is alot of maintenance going into parquet floorings too

Why the sudden love with click vinyl? Any particular reason for this?

I had both parquet and timber flooring in different houses growing up, and honestly, they feel pretty different over time. Parquet can look very classy and unique with the patterns, but my parents were always fussing over little scratches or dents, and if moisture got under it, the wood did start to darken and sometimes even come up a bit. Timber flooring was more forgiving for us, especially when the dog dragged in mud or someone spilled water, although you still have to keep up with cleaning and sealing to keep it from wearing out.

Before our last wood floor installation, I spent a lot of time looking up how to measure the space so I didn’t end up buying way too much (or not enough) board, and it got confusing with all the odd corners. If you haven’t done it before, checking a measuring guide for wood flooring is a smart move so you get the right fit and avoid extra costs.
