For the installation of wall parquet, it is necessary to prepare the frame on which it will be mounted. For this purpose, wooden bars with a width of up to 5 cm, which are mounted on the wall at a distance of about 30-40 cm from each other, are perfect.

For fixing the parquet is better to use klyimer. Since the nails can lead to the formation of cracks and chips on the surface of the material. At the final stage, if the coating is not processed, you must do it yourself, using varnish or oil.

After installation or during operation, it is often necessary to seal the gaps inavoid moisture absorption in wood. With small cracks you can use varnish. If their width is more than half a centimeter, it is worth resorting to using putty.
