Parquet in Horta-Guinardó: the bases we usually find
In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró we usually lay parquet over the existing terrazzo on an impact-sound underlay. That avoids breaking up the floor and cuts footfall noise to the flat below, something many residents' associations ask for.
Before fitting parquet in flats in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera we leave the opened boxes in the room so the wood acclimatises, as the manufacturer advises. Meanwhile we remove the old floor and level any dips in the screed.
A site manager coordinates removal of the old floor, fitting and door trimming, and we hand over the rooms vacuumed. We reach the surrounding areas too: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions
01Parquet flooring installation in Horta-Guinardó: which areas do you cover?
We work in Horta-Guinardó in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó, Can Baró, El Carmel, La Teixonera, Horta, La Clota and La Font d'en Fargues, and also nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.
02Can parquet go over underfloor heating?
Yes, with a stable, fairly thin board, usually engineered wood glued down, and a dry screed. The heating must have completed its start-up cycle first.
03Floating or glued-down parquet?
Floating boards sit on an underlay and are easier to replace; glued-down boards transmit less footstep noise and feel more solid. We decide based on the base, format and use.
04Does the wood need to sit in the home before fitting?
Yes. It should acclimatise in the room, as the manufacturer specifies, so it does not move later with changes in humidity.
