Welcome to our latest blog post, where we delve into the intricate details of our recent project in Clifton Hill, Melbourne, showcasing the transformation of a concrete slab into a stunning masterpiece using small block European oak herringbone parquetry.
Challenges and Preparation
At Provincial Floors, we take pride in our craftsmanship and attention to detail, ensuring that every project we undertake exceeds expectations. The Clifton Hill project presented its own set of challenges, including the need for grinding and self-leveling to correct the subfloor before the installation process could even begin.
Subfloor Preparation
The first step in this transformation was preparing the concrete slab to create a smooth and even surface. This involved grinding down any imperfections and then applying a self-leveling compound to ensure the subfloor was perfectly flat, providing a solid foundation for the parquetry installation.
Parquetry Installation
Once the subfloor was ready, our team meticulously installed the European oak herringbone parquetry. This classic pattern adds timeless elegance and character to any space, making it a popular choice among our clients. The installation process required precision and expertise to achieve seamless transitions and impeccable alignment.
To protect and seal the flooring for long-lasting durability, we applied our commercial-grade water-based finish. This not only adds a protective layer but also ensures that the floor retains its beauty for years to come while being environmentally friendly.
To Conclude
The end result of our Clifton Hill project is nothing short of spectacular. The once plain concrete slab has been transformed into a luxurious space, exuding warmth, character, and sophistication. The stained European oak herringbone parquetry serves as the focal point, adding a touch of old-world charm while complementing modern design elements seamlessly.
