I just bought a new condominium and plan to renovate it thoroughly. However, I’m unsure about the choice of flooring! I want something low-maintenance and durable that won’t get damaged easily by tenants, and of course, it should look good as well! After all, I want to make money from it!

something that always looks very good and increases the property value is, of course, hardwood flooring. That is also my favorite! And with underfloor heating, it is also really nice and warm in winter.

I've also considered hardwood flooring; it's my favorite type of flooring. However, I'm a bit concerned about how durable hardwood is. For example, if tenants frequently move furniture or similar things, wouldn't it get damaged quickly? Or is there something you can do to make it harder or more resistant?

FachmannAmWerk-13 Dec 2007 18:27Hi everyone,
For my hardwood floor, I chose a two-component polyurethane (2K) lacquer because water-based lacquer tends to wear out quickly along the walking paths, and the color of the wood (striped oak) appeared somewhat grayish that way.
The 2K lacquer needs a long curing time before you can move back into the apartment!
I am now very satisfied with this finish; the floor looks much better (honey-colored) and has a satin finish (still with a slight sheen). The lacquer was also available in high gloss. Both finishes are equally durable—it just depends on your personal preference.
Thanks to the hardness of the lacquer, the floor is no longer as sensitive as it was with water-based lacquer. I also received a 40-year wear warranty.
As it is now, I am completely happy with it.
Best regards,
Stefan

Klaus69-14 Dec 2007 17:09That's exactly what FachmanAmWerk posted, I had something similar. So far, everything still looks perfect on my end. My parquet flooring is now almost 6 years old.
