No matter how you want your house to look, a bamboo floor will fit just perfectly. There are so many colors and patterns that you can choose that you will never feel sorry that you went with this alternative. Apart from this, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you did not have to destroy a few trees just to have a nice floor in your living room.
For a tree to reach maturity, it takes more than 20 years. Try to imagine how many trees we cut each year just to make floors, not to mention furniture and paper products. Bamboo grows much faster and it can be used and reused dozens of times.
Another advantage of bamboo flooring is that it takes less time to install than a regular wooden floor. It is easier to clean, it will last longer and it will look better. It can be a bit pricey, but certainly worth the extra few dollars. If you are not sure that this is the right choice for your home, talk to someone who has installed a wood floor in their home. Ask about the time involved, the cost and the skill required to do the installation. Ask about the upkeep and what they do about scratches. Then talk to a flooring expert about the advantages of bamboo flooring. It won’t take long to discover which is the most desirable. You will be convinced that bamboo is the best material for you and for the good of the planet
