Bamboo in cherry finish - WOW!

By Duplex owner

from San Diego, CA

Comments about 1/2" x 3-1/4" 6LFT Natural Bamboo Baseboard:

We did 1/2 of our duplex in natural bamboo, since only natural and baked were the only 2 colors availiable at the time. When we were ready to do the other 1/2 of the duplex, we saw the cherry stain bamboo in the store and loved it. We did the upstairs and the staircase and it is as beautiful as any cherry wood I've seen.

Q:
We looked at this flooring this weekend. We really like it, but in the showroom there were some gaps between boards. The saleman said that is because they use scrap pieces in showrooms. But after reading some reviews on here other people seem to have this problem. Are these boards that inconsistent? Also, I have 1/2 inch partical board subfloor. Can I just pull that up and lay directly on top of 2x6 t&g decking.

  A:
  Floor Gapping can be caused by several factors:
  
  Separating or gapping with a hardwood floor can be caused by major expansion/contraction from temperature/humidity shifts beyond the manufacturers recommended levels (consistent indoor temperatures of 60°-80° F and humidity levels of 35% - 55%). These levels should also be consistent during the acclimation process as noted in the instructions.
  
  You should be okay nailing to the decking. If you want to be certain there is no movement of the subfloor and have very good nail bite or if you are running the flooring parallel to the decking, Cover the decking with 3/8" plywood to isolate board movement (expansion/contraction) that can differentiate from the flooring expansion/contraction rates.

Q:
can I get rid of the scratches on the top coat? I installed 1000sf this past weekend and on Monday my dogs jogged in and scratched the floor fairly significantly. Looks to be the top seal and not the wood. Looks terrible. I've had hardwood floors before and I know they scratch, but this seems to be a little excessive. Steel wool? really fine sandpaper? ??
also, it is a little deceiving to have 'virginia millworks' on the packaging and then have 'made in china' on the interior labels. very concerned about the Quality control. Floor installed well with no gapping though.

how sun resistant is this floor

  A:
  Stained flooring can be better because of the colored stain will provide more of a uniformity and lasting color. Natural color flooring on the other hand will change with age and exposure to UV light. These changes will even out with time. There are no set levels for these natural changes.

- A:
  Despite today's advanced 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.
  Thank you for your inquiry.

Q:
Hello,

Are these planks pre-finished all over (ends, sides, bottom) or just the top? I ask this to understand if, upon installation, a final finish over the installed floor to seal the cracks/joints to mitigate liquid getting into the joints and under the planks is appropriate. I noticed in one other Q/A, it was not recommended to put a finish over the top of the installed floor which means the joints will not be sealed and if pets or other liquid (tracked snow, spilled water) gets on the floor, it will seep into the cracks/joints. Would a felt underlayment to soak up the liquid be better than a waterproof one that will hold the water against the underside of the planks (again, are they finished/seald all over or just on top)? My application will be about 1,000 SF on the second floor over a full heated/finished basement.

  A:
  The top is finished with 7 coats of Treffert or Klumpp (made in Germany) highly resistant polyurethane finish with aluminum oxide anti-scratch and a 55% gloss. The rest is raw wood as it should be so the flooring can breath. Prefinished hardwood, bamboo, engineered, and laminate flooring should not be sealed after installation and does void the warranty. Sealing between boards (seams) will crack during normal expansion and contraction. In addition sealer won't adhere to original finish unless it's lightly sanded (Not Laminate) and then use a water based flooring grade urethane. Or you would use a Bona Kemi prefinished floor resealing product. Www.bonakemi.com. However this is not recommended for pre-finished flooring unless it is worn and in need of refinishing.
  
  If you happen to spill water on your floor, clean it up as quickly as possible. Use area rugs where necessary. If massive amounts of water leak out onto the floor, such as a refrigirator or dishwasher that has leaked , it might damage the floor to the point where it would need to be replaced. Most homeowners insurance companies would cover the repairs needed if this were to happen.
  
  When using area rugs, use a rug pad with a felt, plant or PVC based backing. DO NOT use area rugs with a petroleum based rubber backing (typically black) as this can cause permanent chemical staining/etching of the floor finish.

Q:
I would like to install this on a concrete slab, walk out (below grade). Is the only option to use Elastion? Someone told me that I should/could use Mapei Eco 995...is this true that I can install on concrete below grade using Eco 995?
