Bamboo flooring

There are literally thousands of choice when it comes to bamboo flooring.  Aside from color, you can choose from flat grain or end grain.  You can choose from long plank or standard.  You can choose solid bamboo, strand bamboo, or bamboo veneer with a non-bamboo core. Prices vary dramatically.  bGreen recommends and carries only high quality bamboo.  You will not find any veneer in any of our projects and everything we offer is of the solid/strand variety.



When we acquired the bGreen Mobile Showroom, the kind owners before us had installed bamboo floors.  Awesome....kind of.  Upon further inspection, these weren't the high quality, durable bamboo floors that we are carrying at bGreen.  These were cheap, $1.50/foot, veneer with a plywood (or maybe cedar) backing that need to be replaced every couple years.  So we were torn.  The floors needed to be at least refinished to bring them back to life, but was that really what we wanted to do?



After considering our options, we decided to remove the original bamboo floors and replace them with a new, high quality eco friendly floor.  Unfortunately, much of the bamboo we removed as damaged beyond salvage, and we're looking into alternative uses for the scraps.  Rest assured, they will not just be getting thrown out.



Our new floor features four eco friendly flooring materials.  We'll be using cork, bamboo, marmoleum, and recycled glass tile.  We're really excited to showcase these materials.
