Steps to repair parquet or hardwood flooring with Reformia
Repair Parquet or Wooden Flooring involves restoration and repair of wooden floor surfaces.
1. Inspect the overall condition of the parquet
The professional will conduct a thorough inspection of the entire parquet or wooden flooring to assess the extent of damage. Areas with lifted, cracked, sunken boards or moisture issues will be identified. This initial assessment is crucial to determine whether a minor repair starting at 150 € or a more complex intervention is needed.
2. Identify the type of damage or issue
The type of damage will be classified: isolated damaged boards, moisture-related lifting, structural deformations, or generalized wear. Each situation requires a different approach: point repairs of up to 5 boards starting at 150 € or complete structural repair with moisture treatment from 1,200 €. Correctly identifying the problem ensures the best budget and solution.
3. Clean and prepare the affected area
The damaged area will be thoroughly cleaned, removing dust, old varnish residue, and debris. Loose or damaged boards are carefully removed to prepare the base. This meticulous preparation is essential before proceeding with replacements or regluing work, especially in repairs of 10-20 m² that require regluing starting at 450 €.

What can change your final price
Even similar projects can end with different budgets. These are the factors that most often push costs up or down.
Surface area to repair
The price varies significantly depending on the square meters affected. Small repairs (spot fixes) have a different cost than repairs of large areas or entire rooms.
Type of damage and complexity
Superficial damage such as scratches or small cracks cost less than structural repairs, replacement of rotted boards, or moisture problems that require additional treatment.
Type of parquet or flooring
The material affects the price: solid parquet, engineered wood, floating floors, or laminate have different repair costs. It also matters whether it's a common model or noble wood that requires matching replacement pieces.
Need for sanding and finishing
If the repair requires sanding the affected area and applying new varnish or finish, the cost increases considerably compared to simple repairs that don't need these finishing tasks.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between repairing and restoring a parquet floor?
Repair focuses on solving specific problems such as cracks, scratches, or damaged boards in limited areas, keeping the rest of the parquet intact. Restoration, on the other hand, is a comprehensive process that involves complete sanding, polishing, and application of new finishes to the entire surface. Restoration is more expensive but restores the parquet to its original appearance and is recommended when the floor has aged significantly or has multiple scattered damage.
How long should I wait before using the parquet after repair?
The waiting time depends on the type of finish applied. If filler or sealant has been used, you can usually walk on the area in 24-48 hours. If varnish or oil has been applied, it is recommended to wait 3-5 days before placing heavy furniture or exposing the area to heavy traffic. During this period, maintain proper ventilation and avoid cleaning with water. The parquet specialist will provide specific instructions based on the products used.
Is it necessary to vacate the home during parquet repair?
For simple and localized repairs, it is not strictly necessary to vacate. However, it is advisable to keep the work area clear. For extensive work such as full sanding, it is recommended to vacate the home for 1-2 weeks, as dust and chemical fumes can be uncomfortable. If you have pets or people with respiratory issues, consider staying elsewhere during the sanding and varnish drying process.
What causes lifting and warping in parquet, and how is it fixed?
Lifting and warping are usually caused by changes in environmental humidity, water leaks, or problems in the subfloor layer. It is essential to first identify and resolve the cause of the moisture. The parquet specialist will perform a humidity analysis and, if necessary, apply drying treatments. Then, the affected boards will be sanded, adjusted, or replaced, and a protective sealant will be applied. In severe cases, it may be necessary to remove and reinstall complete sections.
What is the durability of a parquet repair and what maintenance does it require?
A repair well done by a professional can last between 10 and 20 years, depending on traffic and care. To extend its lifespan, perform regular maintenance: clean with damp cloths (not wet), avoid water spills, protect the floor with pads under furniture, and maintain relative humidity between 40-60%. Apply specific parquet maintenance products every 6-12 months. Repairs with warranty typically have better durability than those done without formal commitment.
