Is parquet flooring expensive
l just do not want ''Yes'' or ''No''...please... l wanna
know also is it more expensive than just regular wood flooring?
there are many grades of parquet flooring. The most basic comes
in 12x12 tiles that you just glue down and looks like this

This type of floor costs about as much as a good quality carpet.
But depending on what you're willing to spend, parquet can get as
expensive and as fancy as your heart desires. Here is another example

Yes..it is defintely more expensive than wood. Looks really
nice, but it is EXPENSIVE! & I disagree with ''Sponge''...you don't have
to buy expensive area rugs.I have hardwood ''NOT PARQUET''..I love it & I
don't have EXPENSIVE area rugs...they are moderately priced. I love the
hardwood & it looks great! For an area that gets alot of traffic...I
would defintely go with hardwood. As far as looks...you can really
express yourself with hardwood (parquet) & area rugs. Hardwood floor are not cold, by the way either! Tile on the other hand..that is a different story. Now bedrooms..I would go with carpet. But, in answer to questions as far as hardwood over parquet..PAREQUET is beautiful, but defintely more expensive.
It is about twice the price of an excellent nylon carpeting
with highest grade padding. It will not have to be replaced, so take that
into consideration. The carpet I am having installed this week has a 20 yr
stain-guard warranty/best quality pad on it, & it is half the price of
parquet flooring.
Also, take into consideration that you will probably use area rugs on
parquet, & if you have expensive tastes it will add an even greater price difference. Money was not the reason I decided against parquet. Without nice area rugs, it does not have the same look of ''warmth'' as carpet. Have fun & Good Luck !
