Hardwood flooring accessories for installation, surface treatment, and maintenance

The right accessories are essential for professional floor installation: In the hardwood flooring accessories category, you will find products for the installation, substrate preparation, surface treatment, cleaning, and maintenance of parquet and floorboards. These include, among others, parquet adhesives, primers, notched trowels, special screws, sealers, care oils, and cleaners.

Which accessories are needed depends on the type of floor, substrate, surface, and installation method. Products for oiled wood floors perform different tasks than cleaners or care products for lacquered or sealed surfaces. Adhesives, primers, and trowel notch sizes should also be matched to the specific floor assembly.

Accessories for different work steps

  • Preparing the substrate
    Primers and sealers are used depending on the system to prepare the existing substrate for subsequent processing.
  • Installing parquet and floorboards
    Parquet adhesives and matching notched trowels are available for full-surface bonding. For certain floorboard assemblies, special screws or other fasteners may be required.
  • Treating wood surfaces
    Oils, primers, and sealers are used for the initial treatment, renovation, or protection of the wood surface, depending on the product.
  • Cleaning and maintenance
    Cleaners, wood floor soaps, care oils, and refreshing products should be selected to match the existing surface.
  • Neat wall finishes
    Skirting boards cover the edge or expansion gaps and create a clean transition between the wood floor and the wall.

Selecting installation accessories to match the floor assembly

When installing parquet and floorboards, not every accessory is interchangeable. The suitable parquet adhesive depends, among other things, on the floor type, substrate, and application area. Likewise, a primer is only used if it matches the substrate and the adhesive system being used.

For even adhesive application, the correct notch size on the trowel is important. For screwed floorboards, the fastening must in turn suit the wood species, board thickness, and planned assembly. The technical specifications of each product are therefore always the deciding factor.

Selecting maintenance based on surface type

Oiled, lacquered, and sealed wood floors require different types of maintenance. Oiled surfaces can be cleaned and refreshed with suitable cleaners, wood floor soaps, or care oils, depending on the level of wear. For lacquered or sealed surfaces, products designed for a closed surface should be used.

Appropriate cleaning and care support the existing surface protection and maintain the appearance of the floor. The respective manufacturer and application instructions should be taken into account.

Accessories for parquet and solid wood floorboards

This category brings together accessories for various wood flooring systems – from engineered parquet and solid parquet to solid wood floorboards. The deciding factor is not just the floor type, but the combination of assembly, surface, substrate, and intended processing.

Tip: Before installation, surface treatment, or maintenance, always check whether the chosen accessory is intended for the specific floor and surface type. This ensures that installation and care products are technically compatible.

FAQs

Depending on the type of floor, accessories for installation, assembly, surface treatment, and maintenance are required for parquet and wooden floors. These include, for example, adhesives, notched trowels, primers, screws, skirting boards, wood floor soaps, maintenance oils, and cleaning products. Which accessories are suitable depends on the type of floor, the subfloor, the surface, and the installation method.

Depending on the structure, parquet adhesive, primer, notched trowel, screws, or other installation accessories are required for laying parquet. For full-surface bonding, subfloor preparation, a suitable adhesive, and the appropriate notch size are particularly important. For floorboards, special screws or other fastening materials may additionally be required.

Parquet adhesive is required when parquet or floorboards are fully bonded to the subfloor. This is particularly relevant for 2-layer parquet, many types of solid wood parquet, and suitable heated floor structures. The bonding creates a firm connection with the subfloor and supports heat transfer for underfloor heating.

A notched trowel is used to apply parquet adhesive evenly to the subfloor. The notch size determines the amount of adhesive applied. Which notch size is suitable depends on the adhesive, the subfloor, and the floor format.

A primer or undercoat can be useful if the subfloor is absorbent, dusty, or has varying properties. Depending on the system, it helps prepare the subfloor for subsequent bonding. Whether a primer is required depends on the subfloor, the adhesive system, and technical specifications.

Oiled wooden floors require suitable cleaning and maintenance products to preserve the surface and color effect. Suitable wood floor soaps or cleaners are appropriate for regular cleaning. Depending on the level of wear, maintenance oil, an oil refresher, or a maintenance set may also be useful.

Lacquered or sealed floors require cleaning and maintenance products that are suitable for a closed surface. Aggressive cleaners, scouring agents, and steam cleaners should be avoided. Damp-wiping with suitable products that are matched to the respective surface is recommended.

Skirting boards should match the floor both visually and technically. For parquet and solid wood floorboards, wooden skirting boards, veneered skirting boards, or white lacquered skirting boards are frequently used. They cover the edge or expansion joint and create a clean transition between the floor and the wall.

Some accessories can be used for different types of flooring, while others are product-specific. Cleaning products, adhesives, screws, trowels, and maintenance oils must match the floor type, surface, and application. Especially in the case of oiled, lacquered, solid, or multi-layer floors, accessories should not be swapped arbitrarily.

Gunreben bundles accessories for parquet, floorboards, installation, cleaning, and maintenance in one category. This allows floor covering, subfloor preparation, surface treatment, and maintenance to be selected to suit the respective application.
