As a result, the demands for products that reflect these values are on the rise.<\/p>\n<p>Bamboo is grown primarily in southern and eastern Asia, where it is an integral part of the local economy. The species of bamboo used for flooring is commonly known as \u201cMoso\u201d, and it is the sugars in this bamboo that give it its beautiful natural colour variations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Is Bamboo Flooring?<\/strong><br \/>While technically grass, bamboo is quickly becoming an industry favourite for environmentally friendly wood flooring. Bamboo is used as an alternative flooring because of its physical similarities to true hardwoods. Bamboo floors are also known for their strength, durability, eco-friendliness and natural resistance to insects and moisture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Are The Advantages Of Using Bamboo Flooring?<\/strong><br \/>\u2022 It is an excellent choice for environmentally-conscious consumers.<br \/>\u2022 It is durable and hard-wearing, which makes it suitable for high traffic areas.<br \/>\u2022 It can be sanded to renew the look.<br \/>\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tlcflooring.co.za\/products\/bamboo-flooring\/\">Bamboo flooring<\/a> is available in a wide variety of shades and grains.<br \/>\u2022 It has a high moisture resistance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How Is Bamboo Flooring Environmentally Friendly?<\/strong><br \/>The bamboo plant is a highly renewable resource that can grow to maturity in as little as three to five years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do Bamboo Floors Fade?<\/strong><br \/>Bamboo flooring can fade over time, especially in constant direct sunlight. It is therefore advisable to avoid excessive direct sunlight exposure by using curtains or blinds in affected areas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is Bamboo Tougher Than Oak?<\/strong><br \/>Surprisingly, it is. It has a tensile strength greater than steel!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How Are Bamboo Floors Cared For?<\/strong><br \/>Like most hardwood floors, bamboo floors should be treated carefully. When mopping, it is best to use a dust mop to remove the dust and grime. A stiff-bristled broom can be used to remove more stubborn dirt from its surface.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do Bamboo Floors Require Finishing Profiles and Skirting?<\/strong><br \/>To complete your bamboo flooring installation, you will need finishing profiles and skirting. TLC Flooring in Cape Town has a wide variety of finishing profiles and skirting available to match your choice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is Bamboo Flooring Easy To Install?<\/strong><br \/>The installation process of bamboo flooring is much the same as hardwood flooring. All subfloors must be flat, smooth, clean, dry and free of contaminants that can interfere with the adhesive bond. All subfloors should be tested for moisture content. Do not install flooring directly over the floor joist without proper subflooring.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where To Buy Bamboo Flooring In Cape Town?<\/strong><br \/>TLC Flooring has a range of bamboo flooring varieties and offers their clients:<br \/>\u2022 Competitive pricing<br \/>\u2022 5-year guarantee on all installations<br \/>\u2022 Experienced fitting team<br \/>\u2022 Quality service<br \/>\u2022 Stylish products &amp; extensive variety<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/the-hullabaloo-about-bamboo-flooring\/info@tlcflooring.co.za\">Contact TLC Flooring<\/a> to discuss your bamboo floor options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video:<\/strong> The Hullabaloo About Bamboo Flooring<\/p>\n<p><strong>More Info on The Hullabaloo About Bamboo Flooring here:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tlcflooring.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.tlcflooring.co.za\/<\/a><br \/><strong>Twitter<\/strong>:<br \/><strong>Facebook<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/save-with-myprs-monthly-flat-fee\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/the-hullabaloo-about-bamboo-flooring\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cape Town, July, 21, 2021 \u2013&nbsp;The use of natural materials like bamboo is a fast-growing flooring trend, making it a popular wooden flooring solution, especially as people are becoming more ecologically conscious.
