Tips for buying bamboo flooring
Bamboo flooring is becoming more and more popular. One of its most desirable properties is the fact that it is a renewable resource, growing quickly, unlike the source trees that comprise many traditional hardwoods.
According to this buyer's guide, bamboo comes in all styles and colors and in two main types, vertical and horizontal.
In vertical flooring, the pieces are stood on their narrowest side, leading to a very uniform look. In horizontal bamboo flooring, as shown to the right, the pieces are arranged on their widest side, leaving the nodes of the bamboo plant visible. Which type you choose, horizontal or vertical, is based on your taste, because within each category of flooring, there is usually little price difference between the two.
