If you like the idea of bamboo floors, Perth homeowners have already discovered that this type of flooring can be stylish, affordable and environmentally friendly. It has several other advantages, which may help to persuade you that it is the ideal choice for flooring.
When compared to other flooring types, bamboo is a lot less expensive and its affordability is an obvious advantage, especially for anyone looking to install new floors on a budget.
Whether your preference is for a glossy finish or a rustic look, you can find the style that suits your taste, as bamboo flooring is available in different finishes, meaning it can look good in just about any home.
You can actually install bamboo flooring in your Perth home quickly and easily, without the use of any glue, thanks to its interlocking system. You can expect your flooring to remain strong and in place for many years, although it is still recommended that you have it installed by a flooring expert.
If you need extra insulation in your home, an insulating layer can be placed between your new bamboo floor and your existing floor, to help keep heat in and block out a noise. Whether you have an existing wooden floor or concrete floor, you can enjoy a solid feel on your floors as bamboo can be installed directly on to the surface.
Other wood products aren’t kind to the environment, but bamboo is one of the most sustainable wood products you can buy. The plant can be harvested every five years in parts of Asia, where it thrives.
A bamboo floor can last many years and still look great, and you should plan on re-sanding it only about once every ten years or so, making it a lot easier to look after than other flooring types.
If you feel your home needs bamboo flooring, Perth has several retailers offering this versatile flooring material. Keep in mind the type of finish you want, whether the bamboo has been harvested in a sustainable way and the different types of bamboo flooring, as well as the actual cost before you ask for a quote from any flooring retailer.
