Recycling parquet floor tiles

Leif

I lifted wooden parquet floor tiles from my lounge, as new CH pipes were to be laid in the screed. Anyway, I have ~6 boxes of tiles. They are the small finger type, so hard to relay, with bitumen on the back. Are these of any utility value? Or are they just waste?

I put them on Freecycle, but got no takers. I could take them to the tip, but it seems a waste, no pun intended.

I think we ended up putting that sort of thing in the bin when we took them up. If people are getting a wooden floor they get laminate now.

Try ebay, I paid £100 for a load of them. I needed to fill in an area that had a fire hearth in it. Make sure you put a photo up to show the colour as people may need slightly different shades.

I would try the reclamation yards as well, they would probably be interested.

Don't bin them! As others have said - ebay or reclaim yard

Thanks. Ebay is a good idea, even if it sells at a low price they will be re-used.

I sold about 30 sq metres of it (herringbone pattern) for 600 gbp 18-months ago.
