PARQUETRY
Parquetry can enhance the look of your wood floors. You may choose stock and custom patterns in your choice of wood species. Many of the patterns are of classical design, and can be found in mansions dating back to the 1800s.
Here are a few examples of Parquets from Oshkosh, one of our suppliers.

MOLDINGS
|
|
|
When installing a hardwood floor, we need to leave room for expansion. This is accomplished by leaving a gap around the perimeter of the floor. This amount is established by industry standards. For aesthetic reasons, we install moldings.
