Why hire a flooring specialist in Brussels {#pourquoi}
Brussels homes — often townhouses or older apartments — frequently have original wooden floors that need restoring, or uneven screeds that require careful preparation before installing new flooring. A local installer knows these specific requirements: managing moisture in basements, compatibility with underfloor heating in recent renovations, or carefully sanding old floors that are to be preserved.
Akdeniz Deco has been operating in Brussels for [X years]. Our guarantees:
- Free and detailed quote, with no obligation
- Qualified tradesmen, ten-year liability insurance and professional indemnity insurance
- 6% VAT applicable to renovations of homes over 10 years old (primary residence)
- Sanding and restoration of old floors, in addition to installing new flooring
- Installation warranty
Our services: parquet sales and installation {#services}
- Solid wood flooring: nailed, glued or floating installation depending on the subfloor
- Engineered flooring (semi-solid): compatible with underfloor heating, glued or floating installation
- Laminate flooring: an affordable solution that is quick to install
- Restoration of old flooring: sanding, repairing damaged boards, sealing or oiling
- Sanding and finishing: sealing, natural oil or waxing depending on the room's use
- Underlays and soundproofing: recommended in apartments, especially in multi-unit buildings
Before any installation, we check the condition and moisture content of the subfloor (screed, old flooring), as an improperly prepared subfloor is the leading cause of flooring problems (warping, creaking, peeling).
Which flooring should you choose in 2026? {#types}
| Flooring type | Thickness / composition | Key benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Solid wood flooring | Solid wood throughout | Lifespan of 50 to 100 years, can be sanded 3 to 7 times |
| Engineered flooring (semi-solid) | Wear layer (2.5-6 mm) on plywood backing | Compatible with underfloor heating, more stable than solid wood |
| Laminate flooring | HDF panel with printed design | Affordable, quick to install, cannot be sanded |
Most popular wood species in Brussels:
- Oak: the best balance of durability, price and finishing options, highly sought after in Brussels renovations
- Ash and maple: light woods, suitable for Scandinavian or minimalist interiors
- Exotic woods (teak...): for heavily used or slightly damp rooms, subject to specific technical requirements
Among brands, Quick-Step (a Belgian manufacturer based in Wielsbeke) remains the most popular choice in Belgium, with its laminate (Impressive) and oak engineered (Palazzo) ranges.

Frequently asked questions {#faq}
What is the price of parquet installation in Brussels? Allow €20 to €45/m² for installed laminate flooring, €40 to €80/m² for engineered flooring, and €60 to €120/m² for solid wood flooring (materials and installation included). For labour only, floating installation costs €10 to €18/m² and glued installation costs €18 to €30/m².
What is the difference between solid and engineered wood flooring? Solid wood flooring is made of wood throughout its thickness: it lasts 50 to 100 years and can be sanded 3 to 7 times. Engineered wood flooring has only a thin layer of fine wood on a plywood base: it is more stable, compatible with underfloor heating, but can be sanded fewer times.
Can wood flooring be installed over underfloor heating? Yes, provided you choose engineered wood flooring or certain compatible solid wood options, with an appropriate installation method. Laminate flooring is also compatible in most cases, subject to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Can old wood flooring be refurbished instead of replaced? Yes, old solid wood flooring in good condition can be sanded and refinished, which is generally cheaper than a full replacement and preserves the character of the building, common in Brussels townhouses.
What VAT rate applies to wood flooring work in Brussels? The reduced VAT rate of 6% applies to the renovation of a home over 10 years old used as a primary residence. The standard rate of 21% applies to new construction or recent buildings.
Which municipalities in Brussels do you cover? Akdeniz Deco operates in all 19 municipalities of the Brussels-Capital Region, including Ixelles, Uccle, Schaerbeek, Anderlecht, and Brussels-City.
