A leaking AC unit, a burst pipe under the kitchen or water from the flat above can soak parquet in hours. Blocks swell, cup and lift, and dark stains appear. We stop the cause, dry the floor and subfloor, replace damaged timber and refinish.

After the Leak
Water damage needs drying before any repair.
We fix the cause, dry the floor, replace damaged timber and refinish.
Cupped parquet often flattens as it dries. Sanding too early leaves the blocks thin and they crown later. We wait until moisture readings are back to normal before sanding.
Persistent damp under timber can attract termites, which are found in parts of the UAE. If we see signs of termite activity, we recommend specialist pest treatment before replacing timber.
For the leak, see plumbing repairs or AC maintenance. For loose blocks, see loose block re-fixing.

Yes. We find and stop the moisture source, lift swollen or lifted blocks, dry the subfloor, replace damaged timber and refinish so the repair blends in.
Most parquet can be restored. Loose blocks are re-fixed, damaged ones replaced, then the floor is sanded back to fresh timber, gaps filled and resealed with lacquer or oil. Engineered parquet can usually be sanded a few times depending on its wear layer.
Parquet repair visits start from AED 300. Sanding and refinishing starts from about AED 35 per square metre, and new parquet installation from about AED 150 per square metre supplied and fitted. Prices vary and can change depending on your exact requirements, the materials and access to the property, so the final price is confirmed after we see photos or visit.
Yes. Full restoration includes sanding back to clean timber, filling, staining if wanted and sealing. Light refreshes can use a screen and recoat without full sanding.
