Comments about 48" Bamboo Horiz. Carbonized Tread:

We had the bamboo floor installed in a studio apartment above a new barn that we had built. We used the bamboo flooring, along with the matching stair pieces. It is just beautiful. The stairwell makes an excellent matching addition to the flooring.

  Unfortunately not as this is a random length product.
  Herringbone flooring has fixed lengths and has a specially designed tongue and groove system.

Q:
Can you install this in a bathroom where it is subject to water

- A:
  Due to the excessive moisture present in a full bath we cannot recommend any of our natural flooring or laminate products for this application, I would suggest one of our vinyl Tranquility products. We have a 2mm peel and stick and now a 4mm click together product that can go in full bath areas or where moisture is a concern. Thank you for your inquiry.

Q:
I love the look of this birch flooring; however, we do have several dogs. I have been told that Birch is a considerably softer wood than hickory or white oak. Does the finish have anything to do with it's durability, & resilience to scratches.... would you recommend this wood choice for us, or go with a harder wood

- A:
  Despite today's advanced finish technology, water spills, dirt and other abrasive substances can damage a wood floor's finish. Location, traffic patterns, how often the floor is vacuumed and cleaned, children and/or pets are all factors that influence wear and durability.
  For you scenario: the harder species the better.
  Thank you for your inquiry.

  A:
  If HVAC is controlled year round, any of our flooring will work. It is recommended that the rooms that will have wood installed be climate controlled with temperatures of 50 to 80 degrees F., preferably 65 to 75 degrees F. humidity of 35% to 55% maintained.
  
  Laminate flooring: The indoor relative humidity should be 35-75%, with temperature of 60-85°F.
  
  Vinyl Plank: maintain room temperature of 55°F- 95°F. ideally, 65°F-75°F. Excess cold or heat can affect tightness of floor seams. Humidity not a factor.
