Another good looking floor from Parquet Parquet - teak again!

Stunning basketweave floor newly installed

Above is a teak floor, reclaimed by us from a large college and now installed in our customer's study, a very good-looking block which looks like it has always been in the room. The rest of this block went to a large shop in Marble Arch, London and one day our works outing will take us there to have a look!

A lovely Keruing hallway

Hallway recently fitted with a lovely Keruing block

We have recently had news of a Keruing floor we supplied to a customer, now laid and looking fabulous. The graining is lovely, interesting and varied, the colours a pretty mid-brown with a slightly pinkish tinge. This set of photos was taken a day after the laying was completed, so will tone down, but as you can see, a lovely wood, and really good value.

This photo nicely shows the grain, heartwood and sapwood.

Teak floor as supplied by Parquet Parquet

This is a fabulous teak block which we supplied, recently laid for a client. The house was architect designed c. 1960s and this floor just works. This was no easy task, seven doorways and a staircase to work round, a great job! It is not often we get a chance to see our product laid, finished and 'settled in', but this time we were lucky and have a chance to show off the results.

With many thanks to Sebastian Cox for the excellent photos!
