Bamboo flooring
Bamboo is a unique alternative to tile, wood and the
old fashioned carpets! Bamboo flooring is both beautiful and durable
and can add beauty to any area
of your home and can withstand the wear and tear of daily life.
Here are some reasons why you should choose bamboo flooring in your
home:
- Aesthetic Beauty - Contrary to popular belief, bamboo is actually a grass not a
wood product. Because of this difference, bamboo has a different
look than your typical hardwood floors. Color can be determined
by the manufacturing process (length of time carbonized) and
your typical order of bamboo flooring will be rather uniform in
color and easy to match when installing.
Also, staining is now
possible for bamboo floors resulting in over thirty different
styles and colors being available. With this many choices,
you're sure to find something to perfectly fit your style.

- Durability - Bamboo is not only beautiful, but it is
also quite durable. Bamboo
has received hardness (strength) ratings higher than many
hardwoods. In addition to its hardness rating, bamboo is also
resilient. This means it "bounces back" after most impacts and
doesn't dent. This resiliency is also better for your feet and
back since the floor will tend to "give" slightly and not be so
hard to walk on everyday.
- Moisture Resistance - Bamboo is also a naturally water resistant material. In addition
to its natural resistance, part of the manufacturing process
includes lamination which increases its resistance to warping.
Because of this moisture resistance, bamboo flooring can be used
in bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms where hardwood and
laminate floors shouldn't be used.
- The Environmental Benefits - Bamboo is a sustainable material, this means it can easily and
quickly be re-grown in a reasonably short time. Bamboo is
typically harvested every four to five years without actually
destroying the plant. Also, because of its resiliency, bamboo
doesn't have to be refinished as often as hardwood. This cuts
down on the chemicals necessary to maintain the floor.

By now you should know that Bamboo floors, like most hard flooring materials, are easier to
clean than carpet. No vacuum required, just a dust mop to keep
things nice and clean. And, unlike tile, there is no grout to
worry about keeping clean.
Bamboo is a great addition to any home. It is an eco-friendly,
easy to maintain flooring material that can match any style you
choose for your home.
