I had my first look at a bamboo floor when I listed a home in the Riverbend area and I have to say that I was impressed and really love the look that the bamboo floor offered.
Bamboo flooring offers a modern, asian-inflected look that's incredibly loft- or condo-friendly. A fast-growing grass that requires no pesticides or fertilizers to thrive, bamboo is a renewable resource par excellence: not only can a stand of bamboo be harvested for "wood" every five years, it produces 35% more oxygen than an identically sized grove of trees! Available in planks that range from three-inches to six-inches-wide, bamboo comes in trendy transparent stains, as well as luxe hand-scraped distressed finishes to replicate exotic rainforest hardwoods. Farmed bamboo provides habitat for birds, and isn't the same species that pandas like to eat. Very durable, water-resistant and antimicrobial
Very strong, yet anecdotal evidence points to a tendency to scuff; buy at the higher end of the price scale to get a more durable finish. My clients had opted for a high end product and I did not notice any tendency to scuff. Like usual you get what you pay for. Bamboo flooring should range approximately from $2 to $4/sq. ft. without installation
