At a choice of a floor covering today the majority of people stop on a parquet.

Both it is warm, and it is beautiful, and it is practical. How correctly to choose a parquet and technology of its stacking that it was and on a pocket, and met to expectations?

The durability and beauty of a parquet floor depends directly on the correct decision of several problems. It is a choice of a parquet. A choice of account materials. And the main thing a choice of the competent expert which will pick up optimum technology of parquet works.

Building company "PROXIMA" 8 years works in the professional market of stacking of a parquet of city of Kiev. We work as with traditional for Ukraine, and nonconventional kinds of a parquet. Our experts give special attention to more and more popular parquets from exotic wood.

The best decision is the complex approach. That is in one place to you will suggest both a parquet and other materials necessary for the equipment of a parquet floor, and stacking of a parquet.

The parquet should not be is overdried, not dry, optimum humidity about 8-10 %. And approximately to determine the declared humidity of a tree it is rather difficult. Therefore to begin search of a parquet it is better not in the market, and in the solid firm having corresponding conditions for storage of a parquet, working with the checked up manufacturers. At stands and in prices you will see all variety of wood, manufacturers, grades and colouring.

The parquet is stacked from the valuable breeds of a tree possessing such qualities as durability, stability to external influences, but during too time convenience in processing and aesthetically beautiful.

The traditional standard the oak parquet always was. And now an oak choose the majority of consumers in Russia. But today there is an offer as well exotic breeds, such as merbao and other grades of tropical wood which not only very wearproof, but also have unusual appearance. It is possible to pick up a parquet as all shades traditional yellow and brown (an oak, a birch, a beech, an ash), and black (fumed oak), and even almost white (hornbeam), and also fashionable today shades red (merbao, kempas).

The structure of wood influences appearance and service life of a parquet. A radial parquet (has drunk along a trunk) more qualitatively and more stable to abrasion, and also to influence of humidity, keeps good appearance longer, it is more easy processed, therefore and costs it more expensively, than tangential.

Parquet rods can have various length and width. Standard thickness of a parquet - 15 or 22 mm. Working thickness - distance from a thorn or a groove of a parquet rod up to its obverse surface is very important. At 15мм a parquet working thickness - 8мм, and for 22мм a parquet - already 13мм. Therefore thicker parquet not only stable to deformations under action of a moisture, but also will sustain almost in 2 times more refacing at replacement of varnish or other covering of a parquet. Consider, if at each new polishing thickness of a rod decreases on 0,5-1,0мм.

The qualitative parquet which is made and was stored according to the highest standards, should have and faultless geometry. Insert one rod into another - obverse surfaces should leave without a crack. Representatives of firm will always give you consultation on selection of a parquet.

In prices the parquet differs on grades depending on quality. A parquet of the first-rate quality divide on a way has drunk on " " where there is no selection on saw cut. The parquet of the first-rate quality has no defects of wood. In a parquet of a grade " it is supposed knots in diameter up to 3 mm. Sometimes it is possible to meet the Ukrainian classification: the parquet of the premium supposes one knot in diameter up to 15мм, a parquet of 1-st grade up to three knots in diameter up to 15мм.

If you have chosen a parquet from exotic breeds it is necessary to approach carefully to a choice of the skilled expert familiar with correct selection of all components necessary for device of a floor, is especial glues and varnishes.

Firm "PROXIMA" will execute all complex of works with the parquet and materials. At us you will find a choice on a parquet, and on technologies of stacking, and accordingly under the price.

The modern technology of stacking of a parquet is a whole science. All its components are very important. Modern parquet floor layer should possess versatile knowledge and experience for selection of correct technology. It is necessary to take into account both wishes of the customer, and initial conditions of a premise{room}, and property of the chosen parquet. It{he} should pick up truly materials, provide their compatibility.

The parquet floor is a multilayered covering, and each layer has main functions. The cement coupler provides the base, a layer of plywood - additional stability, a parquet with a varnish covering - esthetics. The parquet stacked earlier on old technologies on bitumen mastic, without plywood, today everywhere starts to exfoliate from the basis, to be lifted up, steps between rods, differences, swellings and hollows on a surface are formed. It is necessary to take into account also, that parquet rods are deformed at various influences non-uniformly, that is they either are braided, or cave in, total deformations of rods increase. For alignment of such floor at polishing leaves already 1,5-2мм working thickness of a parquet. If a parquet to not level, and to grind his{its} surface qualitatively enough it will not be possible. The varnish on poor prepared surface does not form a uniform mirror, is absorbed in a tree non-uniformly, hence, aesthetic qualities of a floor are reduced. Besides the varnish covering on a rough surface is faster erased. That is why, it is enough to repair frequently such parquet it appears it is economically inexpedient. At the same time, a parquet in " also has not been designed for long operation.

The same and at a choice of materials. Stacking of a parquet on the concrete basis without plywood is on occassion supposed. But the economy turns out doubtful. At use of plywood you receive such advantages: additional heat insulation, a noise isolation, a waterproofing. Besides, the parquet stacked on plywood, will serve much longer. Plywood of the raised moisture resistance at an emergency maintains without swelling in water some hours.

At a choice of glue it is necessary to solve for itself similar questions: as far as your parquet will lay for a long time. The most popular qualitative import glues - " BONA " " UZIN ". Modern Ukrainian manufacturers offer production, quality to not conceding import analogues, at constant to a competitive price. Such trade marks use enormous popularity: "LEADER", "KEROSENE STOVE", "KSK-4". Thus national manufacturers constantly expand "ruler" of the goods.

If today very few people stacks a parquet on bitumen mastic, under plywood mastic sometimes use, that for a high-quality and expensive parquet again is inadmissible.

In the market the big variety of parquet varnishes today is submitted. You should take into account what qualities of them at purchase. водно-dispersive varnishes non-polluting and very proof to deterioration not the cheapest. Among them is very expensive, but it is possible to pick up and quite accessible under the price in view of quality and reduction in the future of frequency of updating of a varnish covering. Among domestic varnishes the strongest are allocated and inexpensive two-componental " (Dnepropetrovsk) which involves with fast drying. It can be applied if necessary urgent, enough qualitative and inexpensive varnishing a parquet. Many inexpensive oil varnishes it is not enough wearproof. They can be used at inexpensive repair of an apartment. The correct decision in this case will be regular, everyone years - two as required updating of a varnish covering without mechanical grinding a parquet. The obverse varnish surface plastering manually also is rendered one more layer of a varnish.

Skilled masters are visible and on used tools. In modern building technologies the whole complex of the special equipment and tools is applied. Expensive and qualitative, they provide fast stacking a parquet according to the world standards of quality. Advantage of modern technics in the closing stage of furnish of a parquet floor - polishing and polishings of a surface before drawing of a varnish is especially evidently shown. Only import паркето-grinding machines provide thin polishing a tree that is necessary for varnishing the first-rate quality. The Odessa factory of parquet machines, much to our regret the Ukrainian professionals - паркетчиков, has lagged behind import паркето-grinding technics{technical equipment} of years on twenty. But all can will change with introduction of new long-awaited model and development of technics{technical equipment} not only a drum-type principle of action, and and planogrinding.

Even at observance of technology of performance of parquet works it is important to take into account, that the parquet is necessary for maintaining correctly, that fell upon on shoulders of the consumer.

First of all, the parquet is desirable for stacking only in premises where it is possible to support normal for it a humidity-temperature mode. For too dry or crude premises the parquet does not approach. Optimum humidity of air - 50-60 % then the tree will keep optimum equilibrium humidity of 7-10 %. If humidity of air grows, the tree is sated with water, inflates, as a whole the parquet floor starts to extend. Small deformations to avoid it will not be possible in any case. Therefore between a parquet and a wall leave space. Besides the surface of walls, especially external happens more coldly, that promotes formation of a condensate. At the further set of water the parquet will come off the basis and distend.

During repair air in a premise is usually sated with a moisture. Therefore a parquet stack upon termination of all works connected with water. Unique exception is the label of wall-paper which is supposed to be made when the parquet is already stacked that the dust at polishing a parquet has not spoiled relief or other refined wall-paper. But thus a parquet ground one - two layers of a varnish. The parquet from wood of proof breeds, such as an oak or marbao, maintains short-term influence of a moisture. The beech, an ash, a maple are less steady breeds. An output{exit} from the given situation can be application upholsterer the glue containing smaller quantity of water. It is possible to pick up also wall-paper steady against a dust.
In the winter in heated premises the parquet on the contrary is overdried. The above the temperature of air, the is more in it can be kept waters. At decrease in temperature in the street the maintenance of water in air goes down, this air acts at airing in a heated premise. Water starts to pass from a tree in dry air. The parquet dries out, cracks between rods though it is considered that formation of hardly appreciable cracks which disappear upon termination of a cold season is allowable are formed. That is why masters advise to protect a parquet from differences of humidity and temperatures, both at its stacking, and at operation. It is not necessary to forget, that maintenance of humidity in premises at a level of 50-60 % at temperature about 18-20 degrees optimum for maintenance of good state of health of the person, domestic plants and animals.

The improved technologies of stacking of a parquet provide as well the certain safety factor of a parquet floor at time infringement of conditions of operation and even at emergency water inflow on a parquet. The reliable basis, a waterproofing of a parquet, use of special marks of plywood, a high-grade parquet, steady breeds of the tree, the improved glues and varnishes, performance of works by the skilled master, - all this in a complex allows to go through failures with smaller losses.

Thus, at a choice of a parquet and technology of its stacking it is necessary to take into account and an economic force. One business if you assume to make major overhaul of an apartment through rather short time intervals, being conformed with the financial opportunities. Other business when the expensive parquet from exotic breeds of a tree or an art parquet is stacked, and it should lie decades. Then it is necessary to use more expensive technologies: since a choice of a parquet, preparation of the concrete basis, a waterproofing, plywood, glue, varnishes, etc. and stopping a correct mode of operation of a premise with parquet floors.
