Flooring / Parquet in Zalău

About this service

Properly laid flooring completely changes the look and comfort of a room and withstands years of traffic and wear. A flooring specialist prepares and levels the screed, installs laminate, solid or engineered parquet, vinyl flooring (LVT) or PVC carpet, and finishes with skirting boards and thresholds. Correct installation, with the necessary expansion gaps, prevents later problems such as squeaking or warping. An experienced installer recommends the right type of flooring for each room and delivers a flat surface with no unsightly gaps.

What to check before hiring a flooring / parquet

Choose the correct wear class: AC3 for bedrooms, AC4 for living rooms, AC5 for heavy traffic
Allow the flooring to acclimatize in the room for 48 hours before installation
Ensure concrete moisture content is below 2% before installation
Request a written warranty for labor and check the installer's references
Don't skip the acoustic underlay — it significantly reduces impact noise on floors above
Check surface flatness before ordering flooring — correcting it later increases costs

Frequently Asked Questions

What acoustic underlay is placed under laminate?

A 1-5mm acoustic underlay (foam, cork, or composite materials) is installed under laminate flooring. It reduces impact noise and provides slight thermal insulation. Some laminate packages include underlay.

Can solid parquet be installed over underfloor heating?

Yes, but not all solid parquet is compatible with underfloor heating. More dimensionally stable wood species (oak, ash) are preferred. Surface temperature should not exceed 27°C, and relative humidity should be controlled.

How long does flooring installation take for an apartment?

For a 60-80 sqm apartment, flooring installation (including surface preparation) takes an average of 2-4 days. If self-leveling screed is needed, add another 1-2 days plus drying time.

Can I install parquet over existing floor tiles in Zalău?

Yes, if the tiles are well-bonded, flat, and uncracked, laminate or vinyl can be installed directly over them. This is popular for quick renovations. However, the floor level will increase, which may affect doors and thresholds.

How do I maintain solid parquet?

Solid parquet should be cleaned with specific products, using minimal water. Humidifying the air in dry periods is recommended, and prolonged direct sunlight should be avoided. Every 5-15 years it can be sanded and re-lacquered to restore its appearance.

What's the difference between floating and glued parquet?

Floating parquet (laminate or engineered) is installed freely without gluing, relying on a click-lock joint system. Solid parquet is glued or nailed to the subfloor. Each method has its advantages depending on the flooring type.
