Specialist restoration of historic parquet floors
A historic parquet floor requires more than just technical knowledge.
It demands a deep understanding of traditional techniques and materials, combined with modern craftsmanship.
From classic herringbone patterns to complex Versailles panels, each floor has its own character and history that we carefully aim to preserve.
Our specialists have years of experience restoring parquet in listed buildings, museums and historic interiors.
We know the challenges involved in working with centuries-old floors and know exactly which approach is needed for a lasting result.
Craftsmanship in historic restoration
Restoring historic parquet is a craft that requires patience, precision and respect for the original.
With every restoration, we begin with a thorough analysis of the floor, the materials used and the techniques. This enables us to create a restoration plan that does justice to the historic value.
Preserving original details
It is precisely the small details that make a historic parquet floor special. From handmade joints to authentic finishes.
We do everything possible to preserve these elements.
Where necessary, we apply traditional techniques that have proven their worth over the centuries.
Authentic restoration techniques
For the repair of historic floors, we preferably use reversible techniques.
This means our interventions can be undone if necessary.
We work with traditional materials such as bone glue and natural wax, supplemented with modern conservation methods where they offer advantages.
The approach of Soares Parket
While we cherish traditional techniques, we also make use of contemporary knowledge and methods.
This combination enables us to optimally protect historic floors against modern challenges such as central heating and climate control.
A successful restoration begins with thorough research. We map the history of the floor, analyse its condition and draw up a detailed restoration plan.
In doing so, we look not only at the technical aspects, but also at the historic and aesthetic value of the floor.
Guarantee of quality
During the restoration, our specialists work step by step on the repair of your historic parquet floor. We carefully document each phase and regularly discuss progress.
Damaged sections are repaired where possible and only replaced when strictly necessary, using carefully selected historic materials.
At Soares Parket, quality comes first. We work exclusively with the finest materials and techniques that have proven their value.
After the restoration, you will receive detailed advice from us on the maintenance of your historic parquet floor, so it can last for generations again.
