5 Amazing Benefits of Installing Bamboo Flooring

Grammar enthusiasts who still maintain a sense of humor like to tell the old joke about the panda on the basketball court who doesn’t understand comma usage: “he eats, shoots, and leaves.” Pandas, of course, have a diet that consists almost exclusively of bamboo shoots.

Thankfully, these voracious eaters leave some for the rest of us, where bamboo, among other applications, finds use as an affordable and attractive flooring option. Consider these five benefits of installing bamboo flooring in your home.

1. A High-Sustainability Choice

There’s nothing unwanted or invasive about bamboo, but these shoots grow like weeds. Unlike true hardwoods, which can take years to replenish, bamboo grows quickly and abundantly.

If you’re someone who often thinks about the fragile nature of our global environment, you can rely on bamboo flooring with a clear conscience.

2. High Affordability

Let’s stick with that note on the abundance of bamboo. In a world where the costs of consumer goods are ever on the rise, affordability is paramount. This may be one area where supply and demand curves can still work to your advantage.

New developments in flooring production may make bamboo even more inexpensive—as we’re about to explain.

3. Ease of Installation

Replacing wall-to-wall carpet or worn-out hardwood with new flooring is an easy decision. Pulling up the old floor and putting down the new one, however, can be quite an undertaking. The industry has heard your cries of frustration.

Bamboo, like many other woods, comes in engineered hardwood for even simpler and more durable solutions to your remodeling projects. Whether you choose full bamboo panels or engineered alternatives, the planks are easy to nail or glue down.

4. Harder Than Hardwood

The pros outweigh the cons when it comes to transitioning to hardwood flooring, but one aspect that does give homeowners pause is the propensity for these floors to take unsightly nicks and scratches over the course of everyday household life.

Despite not being a hardwood in name, the manufacturing process for bamboo flooring yields a highly scratch-resistant surface. In fact, bamboo is harder than cherry, poplar, and some varieties of oak. This makes doing damage difficult.

5. High Heat Retention

To round out our five benefits of installing bamboo flooring, let’s revisit the giant panda—always a trip worth taking. To compensate for subsisting on these fibrous but low-nutrition shoots, pandas adjust by wearing their winter coats in a subtropical climate.

Just like those lovable bears, bamboo floors make the most of heat, too. If your home enjoys underfloor radiant heat, bamboo keeps that heat from going to waste, helping to keep your feet—and the rest of your home—pleasantly warm. Now that’s something to shoot for.
