Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to sand and polish engineered parquetry
Not immediately
We recommend that after approximately 7 – 10 years you contact PFC to inspect your floor.
A topcoat may be recommended. This means that the floor is lightly buffed and 1 coat of polish (coating) is applied. This will extend the life of the floor for at least another 5 – 10 years.
After which they may require a full sand and application of 2-3 coats of polish.
