Parquetry work describes patterns blocks and inlay and is still the Rolls Royce of Hardwood Flooring. The materials cost are not much greater than plank floors but the labour content is more intensive. We hold stock of blocks in three sizes. The 230 long x 70 wide blocks known to many as the old victorian school blocks are the classic block most people will be familiar with.

Our blocks are available in solid or engineered. Oak blocks are the most sought after. Only our engineered blocks are suitable for use with underfloor heating. We stock traditional blocks 230 mm x 70 mm and also blocks 350 mm x 160 mm and 600 mm x 120 mm. These blocks are more contemporary in appearance. Blocks can be supplied square-edged or bevelled. Square edged blocks are laid and then require sanding flush and finishing on site. Bevelled edge blocks can be supplied finished or unfinished. Finished blocks are not always available from stock. Tumbled blocks are blocks that have been put into a machine that revolves with grit or aggregate that marks and distresses the blocks giving a worn, second-hand appearance. are blocks exposed to chemical treatment that causes a reaction with acid in the oak giving a natural ageing appearance?
