How to put a piece parquet yourself

This can be a concrete base, to which the parquet is then glued, in accordance with the selected pattern. To do this, use parquet glue and mastic. Before starting to lay parquet, you must make sure that the surface of the base is flat. This will help a two -meter line with a level. The gap between the base and the ruler is allowed no more than 2 mm. Dust and dirt are removed from the surface of the base. In this case, the humidity and air temperature during the entire process should not fluctuate sharply. For this, the windows are kept closed. Laying piece parquet is carried out with air humidity not exceeding 60 percent, and a temperature of at least 18 degrees. At the end of laying, parquet is not touched for a day.

To lay parquet as a wooden base, you can use a plank flooring. This option extends the service life of the parquet up to 40 years. Material (lags and boards) from which the base will be made is treated with an antiseptic. Lags (bars with a thickness of 4 cm and a width of 8-10 cm) are fixed to the floor with special tape bolts, which will allow you to further adjust the height of the lag. This will help to align the floor. The plank black floor is covered with paper or cardboard so that the parquet does not creak. Parquet strips, depending on the length, are clogged with 3 or 4 nails. In order not to damage them, when hit with a hammer, they use a wooden gasket, on which they knock. A gap of 8-10 mm is always left between the wall and the bar.

After the laying of piece parquet is completed, it remains only to polish the bumps and cover the parquet with varnish, which will help preserve the tree from water and abrasion.
