Why Choose 10mm Parquet Flooring?

10mm parquet flooring is specifically designed for situations where a lower build-up is essential. It offers the visual impact of real wood herringbone flooring while maintaining a slimmer overall thickness.

Ideal for Renovation Projects

Perfect for refurbishments where raising floor height is not an option, such as when working around existing skirting, doors or adjoining floors.

Real Wood, Slim Profile

Despite its reduced thickness, 10mm parquet flooring still provides an authentic oak finish with natural grain patterns and tonal variation.

Modern and Practical

A great choice for modern homes, apartments and upgrades where both style and practicality are required.

Installation of 10mm Parquet Flooring

10mm parquet flooring features a traditional tongue and groove system and is ideally installed by fully bonding it to the subfloor using a suitable adhesive. This ensures the herringbone pattern remains stable and secure over time.

Due to its thinner construction, correct subfloor preparation is especially important. A smooth, level base is essential to achieve a high-quality finish.

Some installations may use underlay with PVA glue on the joints, but full bonding is strongly recommended for the best long-term results.

Where is 10mm Herringbone Flooring Best Used?

10mm parquet flooring is ideal for:

Renovation projects with restricted floor height
Apartments and flats
Bedrooms and living spaces
Hallways where transitions are important
Areas with existing flooring levels to match

It is not recommended for high-moisture environments such as bathrooms due to its real wood construction.

Available Styles and Finishes

The 10mm parquet flooring range includes a variety of oak tones to match different interior styles:

Light oak for bright, contemporary spaces
Natural oak for a balanced, timeless look
Dark oak for a bold and sophisticated finish

Each finish enhances the herringbone layout, creating a stylish and high-end appearance.
