Re: whats the difference between
Depending on how you slice it, there are different ways to categorize hardwood flooring. The type of material (e.g., oak or walnut), the form of the material (e.g., solid or engineered), and the way the material is laid out (e.g., planks or parquet) are all ways to distinguish types of hardwood floor. Considering what kind of traffic and wear the floor will receive is key in deciding what type of hardwood floor you should use.
This is googled  I knew parquet was a "style" of hardwood bc we have it--but I needed a more eloquent way to say that--HTH

the hardwood floors are usually much thicker and a better quality. I tend to think of parquet floors as wood tiles. It's not my taste. I definitely like traditional hardwood better...
