On which floor is a parquet made of solid wood floorboards laid?

The floor structure forms the basis for a long-lasting and high-quality parquetDepending on the situation and requirements, there are different approaches to achieve an optimal result.

Subfloor for parquet

The surface on which the parquet is to be laid must be level, stable, clean and dry. It should not be laid on carpet.

If you lay floating, a combination of impact sound insulation and vapor barrier between the floorboards and subfloor is ideal. On the one hand, this insulates against sound, on the other hand, it prevents residual moisture from rising and damaging the parquet. Small bumps can also be compensated for in this way.

Impact sound with glued parquet

It is often assumed that with a fully bonded Solid wood parquet No impact sound insulation is necessary. After all, there's no room between the parquet floorboards and the floor to prevent rattling or movement in the parquet. However, impact sound isn't insulated, and every footstep on the parquet floor can usually be heard on the floor below.

Cork layer against sound

A good solution is the natural product cork. A thin layer of cork can be easily glued to the subsurface - in addition to footfall sound insulation, thermal insulation is also achieved. For the room itself, this means: it is better soundproofed, there is no unpleasant hollow tone and the heating heat is not lost through the floor.

For safe walking on the parquet and best stability despite the seasonal temperature fluctuations, we recommend Solid wood parquet floorboards always be laid fully glued.
