Engineered wood parquet flooring combines a hardwood wear layer with a multi-layer plywood or HDF core. The wear layer is typically 2–6 mm thick, while the core provides dimensional stability and allows wider blocks and patterns such as herringbone, chevron and basket weave. Andiwilson supports projects by reviewing wear layer thickness, core construction, pattern, block size and finish before order. Illustrative specifications use 14–15 mm boards in hotel ballrooms, residential hallways and retail flagships. Installation may be floating over underlay, glue-down over concrete or staple-down over wood subfloors, with a vapour barrier where required. Acclimatisation and subfloor moisture checks are agreed before fitting. A dry-lay helps check pattern alignment and shade variation. Engineered parquet can suit low-temperature underfloor heating when confirmed by the manufacturer, but heating should be commissioned gradually. Andiwilson provides care notes covering dry mopping, neutral cleaner and finish inspection. Performance depends on core quality, site humidity and maintenance, so project teams should confirm current technical documents and installation guidance before ordering.
