Why parquet for a London home or project
Parquet adds instant character and is a genuine selling point in the London property market. Our parquet is engineered oak, so it is more stable than solid wood, suits UK homes and is compatible with underfloor heating, ideal for flats, conversions and new builds alike.
Sustainable, specification-grade
Our oak is responsibly sourced and available FSC and PEFC certified, with the wear layers and finishes specifiers expect. Browse our wider engineered wood flooring range for plank options too.
Trusted on landmark projects
Our floors feature in major projects including Landmark Pinnacle in London. Whether you are a homeowner or specifying for a practice, we can help you choose the right parquet for your space.

Frequently asked questions
What is parquet flooring? Parquet is wood flooring laid in a repeating geometric pattern, most commonly herringbone or chevron, rather than straight planks.
Is parquet good for London homes? Yes, engineered parquet is stable, suits underfloor heating, and adds character and value that works in both period and modern London properties.
What is the difference between herringbone and chevron? Herringbone blocks are rectangular and laid at right angles to form a zig-zag; chevron blocks are cut at an angle so the ends meet in a continuous V.
