Pitch Pine Parquet Flooring Blocks Batch 13sqm

Description

Batch of Extra Thick Pitch Pine Parquet Flooring  (Bitumen Backed) 13SQM

These batches of extra thick pitch pine parquet flooring offer durability, history and practical performance for demanding interiors. Reclaimed from a large workshop in Bozeat, Northamptonshire, they share consistent character and wear. Because all blocks come from the same floor, the surface remains reassuringly even.

Parquet flooring dates back to seventeenth century France, where craftsmen replaced cold marble with patterned timber blocks. Over time, parquet became popular in British civic buildings and workshops. Its geometric layout distributes weight effectively and strengthens the overall floor structure. Consequently, parquet suits both domestic and commercial environments.

This pitch pine parquet flooring features extra thick blocks designed for longevity. Each block carries a bitumen backing to resist damp conditions. Historically, installers laid this format directly onto dirt floors in industrial settings. The additional depth reduced warping and movement within the wood. As a result, these reclaimed batches still display a notably level surface.

Now requiring refurbishment, the blocks simply need a thorough deep clean. Structurally, however, they remain in good condition with decades of service ahead. Once prepared and sealed, pitch pine parquet flooring performs exceptionally well in high footfall areas. Hallways, offices and light industrial spaces all benefit from its resilience. Parquet for purely domestic use is here.

Warmth and Colour

Pitch pine is renowned for its density and rich, warm tone. With proper installation, these blocks will deliver lasting durability and visual warmth. Wooden flooring also feels naturally comfortable underfoot, unlike colder stone or concrete surfaces. Therefore, pitch pine parquet flooring suits large living areas in both modern and period homes.

The extra thickness provides a practical advantage for domestic settings. It allows for future sanding and refinishing without compromising structural integrity. In addition, reclaimed timber has already stabilised over decades of use. This reduces the risk of unexpected movement after installation.

Choosing reclaimed pitch pine parquet flooring supports sustainable renovation. You extend the life of quality timber rather than relying on newly harvested wood. Moreover, reclaimed flooring carries authentic wear that new materials cannot replicate. Once cleaned, these blocks will reveal their original gloriously rich colour and continue performing for many years.
