Parquet Floor Varnish – Enhance & Protect Your Flooring
Parquet flooring is known for its luxurious, elegant appearance and timeless charm. Made from solid wood blocks arranged in unique patterns, parquet floors add warmth and sophistication to any home, office, or commercial space. While parquet flooring is naturally durable, age, wear and tear, and environmental factors can cause it to lose its shine and protective layer over time.
Applying parquet floor varnish is one of the best ways to restore, protect, and enhance your flooring. At Wood Floor Singapore, we offer professional parquet floor varnishing services to keep your wood floors looking stunning and long-lasting.
Why Varnish Your Parquet Floor?
✅ Protects Against Wear & Tear
Daily foot traffic, furniture movement, and accidental spills can cause scratches, scuffs, and stains on parquet floors. Varnishing creates a protective layer that shields the surface from damage.
✅ Enhances the Floor’s Appearance
Varnish adds a rich, glossy finish that highlights the natural beauty and grain of the wood, making your floors look new and polished.
✅ Increases Moisture Resistance
Parquet floors can absorb moisture, leading to swelling, warping, or discoloration. Varnishing seals the wood, preventing water penetration and protecting against humidity damage.
✅ Easy to Maintain & Clean
A well-varnished floor requires less maintenance since it repels dust, dirt, and stains. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping are enough to keep it in top condition.
✅ Extends the Lifespan of Your Flooring
By strengthening the wood surface, varnishing prolongs the life of your parquet flooring, delaying the need for costly repairs or replacement.
Types of Parquet Floor Varnish
Different varnish types offer varying levels of protection and finish. Our experts will recommend the best option based on your flooring type, lifestyle, and aesthetic preference.
🔹 Glossy Varnish – Gives a high-shine, reflective surface, perfect for luxurious interiors.
🔹 Matte Varnish – Provides a subtle, natural finish with minimal shine, ideal for a modern, minimalist look.
🔹 Satin Varnish – A balanced finish between gloss and matte, offering a soft sheen with natural depth.
🔹 Water-Based Varnish – Low-odor, eco-friendly, and dries quickly with a clear, non-yellowing effect.
🔹 Oil-Based Varnish – Deeper penetration into the wood, offering enhanced durability and richness in color.
Step-by-Step Guide to Parquet Floor Varnishing
1. Surface Preparation
Before applying varnish, the floor must be cleaned and prepped to ensure a smooth application:
🔸 Remove dust, dirt, and stains using a gentle hardwood cleaner.
🔸 Inspect the floor for cracks, holes, or gaps and fill them with wood putty.
2. Sanding the Floor
Sanding removes the old finish, evens out imperfections, and ensures the varnish adheres properly. We use high-quality orbital sanders for a smooth, dust-free surface.
3. Applying the First Coat of Varnish
The first coat is applied evenly using a roller or brush, following the natural direction of the wood grain.
4. Drying & Light Sanding
After 3–4 hours of drying, a light sanding is done to ensure a flawless, even finish.
5. Applying the Second Coat
A second coat is applied for maximum durability and protection. Additional coats may be applied depending on the condition of the floor.
