parquet flooring Frequently Asked Questions
How does one repair parquet flooring?
A small portion of parquet (mosaic) flooring was lifted due to water damage near the kitchen in my apartment. I will be moving out soon and wish to repair the floor to avoid extra billing. What tools does one need? It's about 8 "strips" of wood. Anyone know what Ill need/how do tackle this small job?
put a strong adhesive under the strips and set weight on top of them to push them flush with the floor
Is it worth installing drywall over a brick wall to make the room warmer?
I moved to Italy and bought an apartment. The houses here aren't insulted like in the U.S. They have brick walls and plaster; that's it. My bedroom which has one outside wall gets kind of cold in the winter. I have new windows and the cold doesn't enter through them. The whole wall just gets pretty cold. I was thinking about covering that wall with drywall. Between the two, I want to put a sheet of material which is about 1/8th of an inch thick. One side seems to be of aluminum and the other a spongy type material. I think this is normally used when putting in a parquet floor (between the sub-floor and the parquet).
Do you think this might work and make my room at least a couple of degrees warmer? Also can I attach the drywall directly to the wall using screws and anchors or should I put up studs like in the good ol' USA?
Not knowing where in Italy, I'll trade ya,,,smiles. I'm in Florida.
Seriously if that material is available certainly it can help insulate. I have no clue as to suplliers in Italy, but with the housing evolutions there and the great designers I have to believe there are similar suppliers as HD/Lowes here.
I'd suggest firring strips, anchored to the brick with might equate to TAP CONS here in the states. Brick is easy to drill into with a mortar bit. If possible, beyond what you describe you might seek a supplier of some kind of construction grade Foam sheeting, as is also sold here in the States in various thicknesses, and cut to fit between the firring strips which you should install 16 inches at centers. I guess what you use also depends on how much floor and room space you can give up. I 2x4 stud and 1/2 inch drywall will eat up about 4 1/8 inch of floor space, into a room, on any or each wall.
The drywall should be similar in size to here in the states, though perhaps measured metrically? A 4 x 8 sheet of 1/2 inch should still be installed with help, and whether or not you use firring strips or studs and the proper length screws, the install would be similar to methods used here, in the States.
Certainly some FOIL, reflecive surface, pretty much as you describ, faced to the brick will help. Also without knowing a heating source, anything that raises your temp to even a comfortable 68 degrees in a room you sleep in, usually using blankets, etc. should be fine.

Kinda too bad to cover brick. I like it as an interior wall surface, but I like WARM too,,,smiles.
