How does central air conditioning and summer heat affect parquet floors in Kuwait?

Kuwait villas experience high summer heat outdoors and chilled air conditioning indoors. We install parquet with appropriate perimeter expansion gaps and moisture barriers to prevent buckling, warping, or separation.

What is the difference between AC4 and AC5 laminate parquet wear ratings?

AC4 is rated for heavy residential and general commercial use (bedrooms, living rooms, salons). AC5 offers superior wear resistance suited for high-traffic commercial spaces, diwaniyas, and main hallways.

How long does a standard parquet installation take in Kuwait?

Most standard rooms and apartments (up to 60-80 square meters) are completed, trimmed with matching skirting, and cleaned within a single working day.
