Stunning and warm are the words that come to my mind when visualizing a Bamboo floor.

Bamboo has so much to offer it’s easy to clean, comes in many different colours and cost effective in comparison to other timber flooring. Bamboo is very easy to install and is harder than most timber flooring alternatives. Bamboo is less likely to split and warp in comparison to other timber flooring options.

A major advantage with Bamboo is it comes fully finished without the need to polish saving time and cost.

Bamboo has amazing environmental benefits primarily from its ability to grow so quickly without the need for fertilizers, pesticides with very little water, Bamboo matures after six to seven years in comparison to 20 -30 years for hardwood species.
