Our Business - Repairing Glue-Down and Parquet Floors

"It's not easy to take up glued-down wood, and parquet floors.
But K&K Floors' high-tech tool can take up any glued-down wood,
or parquet floors."

If the time comes when you have to patch a damaged parquet floor
you installed yourself, you will appreciate having bought more tiles
than you actually needed to lay the floor. Finding parquet tiles
that blend seamlessly with an existing floor is almost impossible -
especially since wood changes color as it ages.
The technique for replacing damaged tiles is similar to the steps
for repairng strip flooring: Remove the damaged section, then cut
and install replacement tiles to fit the opening.
|
|
Cutting out the damage
|
|
Adjust the blade depth of a circular saw to the flooring thickness,
then cut just inside the edges of the damaged section - in this example,
a section of a single tile.
|
|
Preparing the opening
|
|
Place a butt chisel on any remaining waste, with the bevel facing
the opening. Strike with a hammer to chip out the waste. Scrape
old adhesive off the subfloor.
|
|
Laying a replacement tile
|
|
Cut the bottom lips off the tile's grooves. Smooth the edges of
the tile with 120-grit sandpaper. Spread adhesive on the subfloor
with a V-notched trowel and lay the tile.
