Source for Original Parquet Flooring

http://cdn.brownstoner.com/4f38002491f17-.jpg

Hey all,   I have a space of a room (these rooms had been separate, but the wall was removed and so they are now a single room) whose original parquet floor had been removed when I bought the house.   The space is approx. 7′ X 12′, and I’d like to find a source for original 1-1/2″ x 8″ slats to put in a floor that mathes the rest of the floor.   Can anybody help here with a source for the flooring or other suggestions for this work?   Thanks, SWR

We just refinished an original parquet wood floor in Bed Stuy, we had to repair /replace some areas due to damage.  We were able to match the corner designs pretty closely as well.  We sourced our material for our project from Premium Wood Floors & Supply / (718) 369-2333 / 121 31st St, Brooklyn, NY 11232\.  Keep in mind the project we did was an oak parquet floor, if you need any help let us know.

Interesting. And maybe coincidental. It appears that Eastside Flooring is a distributor for Lebabnon Oak Flooring! Thanks, Steve and mrc!

Th face nailed flooring that Steve mentions is made by Lebanon Oak Flooring: http://www.lebanonoak.com/ It can be ordered in 1-1/2″ widths by most any wood floor supplier.

eastside flooring on 124 st in manhattan has what is called face nailed strip flooring.  it is 5/16″ thick by probably 2″ wide.  it comes in mixed lengths.  I realize that you are looking for material 1.5″ wide but must say this is the closest you will find.  The installer will have to cut it to size on site.
