Color differences, grains and knot content are natural features and not a quality defect. Depending on the structure, a distinction is made between three types of parquet:  <\/p><p><strong>Solid parquet<\/strong><br>Consists of one piece of wood and is screwed, nailed or laid floating. Solid wood reacts strongly to moisture and temperature, but can be sanded several times. Hardwoods are more resistant than softwoods.  <\/p><p><strong>Finished parquet (multi-layer parquet)<\/strong><br>Consists of several layers of wood and is more dimensionally stable than solid wood. The surface is usually already sealed. Finished parquet is often laid with click systems and can also be sanded depending on the wear layer.  <\/p><p><strong>Veneer parquet \/ wooden floor<\/strong><br>A cheaper option with a thin real wood layer. Thanks to the low installation height, it is ideal for renovations.
