One of the most problematic parts of the Christmas season preparations apart from the expected feast is getting the house ready for the guests, especially so, for a newly-wedded son or daughter.

Floating bamboo flooring Installation
Floating bamboo flooring installation is a simple and quite an affordable process. This is due to the fact that the flooring is not in any way fixed to a sub floor, though the single planks are set onto one another by an interlocking system or using glue. As a matter of fact, depending on the installer’s preferences, a thin or thick layer of foam is laid on the wooden, concrete or tile sub floor just before the bamboo planks are put in place. The foam as well as the middle layer can be of a rubber or cork or any other material that is easy to work with and is convenient for the installer.
As the flooring material is not fixed into any sub floor, the installed bamboo is able to expand and contract as a result of the ever changing weather conditions thus being able to avoid bending or buckling in some places as it would have if it were permanently fixed. For this process to take place, an installer is advised to leave some small gaps all over the completed floor.
The floating bamboo polished floor finish greatly improves its moisture resistant capabilities thus remaining durable for decades. Apart from this, the flooring installation is an easy process that can be done without the need for expensive professional assistance.
In a nutshell, by installing floating bamboo flooring, the look of your newly-wedded son’s house will be enhanced, not forgetting its resale value greatly improved. With its easy and uncomplicated installation process, not only will you be able to save on time and money, but also your house will be ready in time for the expected Christmas celebrations.
