Hi all, I'm new to this and would like to any feedback from others who have installed refrigerative air conditioning with ducts under a raised timber floor, and what issues they may have experience by using a common heating and cooling ducts. We are also building a new home that will have raised timber flooring so we can install ducted heating but, in our case, there is no roof space to install ducts in the ceiling in any case because our house will have 2 skillion roofs, one at 15° and the other at 7.5° pitch, both meeting in the center of the house, and running the entire length of the house. The other challenge we have is that half the house along one side will have raked ceilings in the living, dining and kitchen areas and will extend along the entry hall way, whilst the other half of the house where the bedroom bathroom laundry etc., will have flat 2.75m high ceiling and the available roof space will be minimal. The option of ducting the cooling beneath the house is attractive because we also don't need bulkheads.

I have some old discoloured and damaged cork tiles glued to hardwood floors. I would like to remove the cork and polish the hardwood floors. What is the best way to do this without damaging the hardwood and costing a mint?

Pop down a 600mm box or basket and test that height for usability beige committing to tiling?

Sustainability matters: We source our timber parquetry from environmentally responsible mills because they are the most intensively managed in the world.

From a design perspective, there’s a range of benefits to incorporating a parquet timber floor into your design plan: Aesthetics: Timber parquetry offers any space a classic and subtle beauty, or a modern talking point. Parquet floors are highly popular for their aesthetic value. Durability: Prefinished parquet flooring blocks or boards are treated with an industrial grade finish, which means it will last longer than floors made with other materials. Easy resurfacing: Spaces change over time. If you have the time and tools, timber parquetry is simple to sand or resurface. Stability: Because an engineered parquet floor is made from three layers of wood, fitted together at 90 degree angles, movement between the boards is reduced compared to other timber floors. This means that an engineered parquetry timber floor is less susceptible to cupping, bowing and warping that a traditional solid timber floor.
