    Parquet flooring repairs - how to prepare concrete floor?

    Parquet flooring repairs - how to prepare concrete floor?

    Superb, thank you very much WoodYouLike!! I will stick :wink: (ha ha - pardon the pun) to your and mattysupra's advice. I reckon I will start laying the blocks in two week's time so the concrete should definitely have dried by then - if not, I'll wait. Thanks for the suggested products as...

    My roughly 10 year old Zanussi DWS 949 has stopped working. When I turn it on, I do not hear the usual gush of water entering the machine.
