Why do you need a stable leveling compound under parquet floors?

Parquet floors are a popular choice due to their durability and appearance. However, a good substrate is essential to prevent the parquet from being damaged or shifting. An unstable substrate can lead to creaking, unevenness, and even cracks in the floor. This problem is especially common in older buildings or in areas where the substrate is not properly prepared. Using a stable leveling compound ensures that the parquet floor can be laid on a flat and firm base, which significantly extends the floor's lifespan.
