Bamboo Wood Flooring- Beauty And Uniqueness

October 30, 2009 by  

With a greater push for eco-friendly homes it’s no wonder that bamboo wood flooring has become popular among earth conscious home builders and remodelers. Unlike its hard wood counterparts bamboo can be harvested and be ready to cultivate again in three to four years. Hardwoods, like ash, take a minimum of sixty years to grow to maturity and usually much longer.

 Vertical strand bamboo flooring and horizontal woven bamboo are two popular styles available. Horizontal has more of a modern look as it is similar to its common counterparts. Vertical shows all of the knuckles and gives more of a classical Asian look. Either way you go the look of this type of flooring is outstanding,

 Even though bamboo itself is impressively strong, the flooring is softer than hardwood flooring and must be treated slightly different. Be sure to use rugs in high traffic areas to minimize the amount of wear. Also, do not use rubber backed rugs as this could retain moisture and discolor your floor.

 Plank and glueless bamboo flooring are two popular installation styles. Plank is more traditional in that it has to be nailed down. Glueless is the click type where you fit the pieces together and snap them together. Your décor, budget, and installation site will determine the best type to choose.

 Elegance, individuality, and earth friendly. What more could you want from something necessary for your home? Costs are comparable to that of traditional flooring and you can either have it installed or do it yourself!

    Take out of pot,remove soill.Cut plant into as many bits as you want,but make certain each piece has roots on it.Cut back top foliage,down to about a foot.Re-pot pieces making sure plant roots are not too long(cut if neccessary).Water well,and then put pots somewhere warm without draughts.Only water when top of soil is dry.They will take a season to grow again,but you will get them growing again.They don't like fertiliser,and they don't like too much water.

    I am a single father who grew up in Southern California and moved to Colorado Springs at the beginning of 2003 following my daughters. I am very much into music, I collect, write, dance and go to concerts.RoxyMuzick on Yahoo, AIM, MSN. I am a dual certified CNE,MCSE,CNA. I work on company computer networks designing, building and repairing them at my computer consulting company MasleyAssociates.com I have an 10 year old daughter(Tatiana) and a 9 year old daughter(Paulina) My story and where I’m at: I’m a single father, IT Manager, Network Engineer, Network Administrator I now run my own computer consulting company in Colorado Springs. I moved here three years ago following my daughters and their mother from our lifelong home of Southern California to be near them. I bought my own large new house as close as i could get to my beautiful, special Amerasian daughters Tatiana who is now 10 and Paulina who in seven days will be 9. Flashback: An immersed product of the 80’s I grew up on and totally in Love with 80’s, Goth and Industrial Alternative Music. I was a staple in the Alternative LA Club Scene, had my own band Corporate Intrigue, was in the movies “Moving Violations” and “Sex, Death and Eyeliner” modelled for hair and fashion shows, met a lot of famous people, had wild times and the best times of my life some of which I will never ever forget. I can’t tell you how wonderful it felt unless you were there you will never know or understand but it was such a wonderful and exciting time. I’ve been married once and engaged four times, had two beautiful daughters who are my world and moved from my lifelong home of Southern California/Los Angeles to Colorado Springs twice following my daughters to be with them because they are my world. The present: Since then I have been making things work as much as I possibly can while retaining the things in life which give me great joy and pleasure: My daughters, My Career and My love of alternative music, dancing, clubbing, concerts and the feeling I get when the DJ plays a song I absolutely love and I take the dancefloor and for a few minutes I am transported back to a time that made me so happy. I own a beautiful, brand new home in Ridgeview Stetson Hills two streets away from my daughters so I can see them as much as possible and be a part of their lives. But it hasn’t been without sacrifice, my ex wife(and mother of my daughters) who I was her second marriage, broke up twice with her third husband the first time we moved back from Colorado Springs to Huntington Beach California and I again followed them and just two weeks later her third husband talked her into coming back so I moved back with them to Colorado Springs. Most recently she announced she was divorcing her third husband and buying another house here in Colorado Springs and staying and that was sad for me because I hoped she would have chosen for us to go back home to Los Angeles. I have been in films and want to get back into it, I have DJ’d and ran and managed my own dance clubs including Eroxa Denver and want to get back into it. I write music and have been in bands including Corporate Intrigue and want to get back into it. As far as dating goes it’s been a hard learning experience for me personally. The truth is I don’t see much love left anymore in the present world and I’m talking about real Love not selfish or self indulgent Love. Nobody seems to truly care about anybody else anymore, only themselves and that leads to disappointment, and discouragement. We’re all just lost souls out here doing the best we can and I wish everybody else luck in reaching and attaining their dreams. At the end of it if one person who knew me gets up at my funeral and says “Greg loved his daughters, loved music and had a full life and made lots of friends” I will be happy. I am a lucky guy for so many reasons that sometimes when I think about how fortunate I am I am rendered speechless. I am always up for meeting new and interesting people. I look forward to meeting you and anybody else new and interesting and just like the feelings of spending time with my daughters or a new friend and new adventures or being out on a dancefloor when the right song hits. I am touched by the things in life that really matter like a smile on a child’s face, single mothers, a girl taking care of a disabled family member, Love in all it’s forms, a song from the heart and anybody who ever stood up for something.

    Hey – sorry to be slow coming back.
    Unfortunately I don't have a lot of info – I went on a course called “Advanced Services CRS-1 Installation and Site Planning” that was run to cover these aspects, but can't find the course notes. I do have a CD, but it's basically a rip of the cisco.com product page and doesn't have a lot of useful information with regard to the physicals.

    Thanks for the comment and much appreciate the information regarding the origin of the Merton rule. While I agree with you that its good to stimulate investment in renewable technologies, it is unlikely that I will ever be convinced that on site renewable technologies are a good thing. I know that when people push the use of renewable energy they have good intentions, its just that I still believe that renewable technologies are better installed off site, rather than on site.

    One way around this would be to make buildings as energy efficient as possible as I have proposed and replace the requirements of the Merton rule to install on site technologies, with a more effective requirement to fund the installation of off site renewables. My main concern is that many sites, especially sites in urban environments are just not suitable for most renewable technologies. It is much more effective to use the money, which would be largely wasted on installing the renewable technology on site, to fund more efficient off site developments.

    I am by no means proposing doing nothing, I am suggesting that there are much better ways to spend the money which has been thrown at buildings. As I hope I have demonstrated in my post, it can be counter productive to insist on the installation of on site renewables. I hope that we all have the same aim, that of reducing energy consumption and hence CO2 emissions.
