What this work involves
Discuss moisture, flatness, floor build-up and any underfloor heating. Include existing doors, skirtings and transitions.
- Species and pattern
- Floating or bonded installation
- Finish and maintenance
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Check material transitions between rooms before ordering individual finishes.
What the drawing needs to explain
Use the same room and detail numbers on drawings and in the room book. Identify the approved revision for each item and which supplier still needs to provide information.
How to review the result
Use the room book as a handover checklist. Review transitions first and individual products afterwards; a fully supplied room can still have a missing junction.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on area, timber selection, substrate and laying pattern. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for parquet & timber flooring. Identify the elements that should remain.
