With a timeless beauty that emphasises the stunning decorative possibilities of wood floors, created using traditional techniques parquet flooring is an excellent choice for any style of property.
The word parquet originates from the French word ‘parqueterie,’ which was the practice of laying large diagonal squares used first at the Palace of Versailles. Parqueterie was used because the constant washing of marble flooring rotted the joists beneath the floors. The benefits of choosing a parquet floor today include the durability and beauty of the finished product. In addition, little maintenance is required to keep your parquet wood floor looking its very best.
The French oak hardwood blocks used in parquet flooring can be placed in a variety of patterns to emphasise and enhance any space. The blocks are cut in geometrical patterns, with the most popular being herringbone.
We stock sustainable French oak blocks in a variety of sizes. These are machined to precise standards to create interlocking joints and providing a thick-wear layer to give maximum strength and durability.

Mark and his team repaired, sanded, stained and varnished 6 floors in our Edinburgh Georgian property conversion.Their work was excellent and we are delighted with the result. The team were always friendly and reliable and they have since helped and advised me on other refurbishment questions. Highly recommended.
Mark provided a brilliant service, my floors are completely transformed and at a reasonable price. His team were tidy and efficient. I would definitely recommend them.
First-class service I rang Mark after reading the reviews on Google and he was round at my house within the hour! How’s that for service. We got a couple of other quotes and Mark’s was very competitive but what really impressed was his friendliness and knowledge. We always try and use local tradesman and Mark and his team were based just around the corner. We actually went on holiday and just let the guys get on with it. By the time we came back, we couldn’t believe the finish on our floorboards. The repairs were of the highest quality and overall we were thoroughly delighted. A friend used another company and wasn’t at all happy with the finish when compared to ours. We’ll definitely use them again for another place.
Fantastic job! We had our living room and hall floors sanded and it looks fantastic. The damaged floorboards were replaced and all holes filled. We went away for a few days and left the team to it. We came home to a surprisingly clean house. Mark and his team obviously made a big effort to clean up. I would not hesitate to recommend Stockbridge Flooring. Thanks again.
