Bamboo Flooring Quick Installation Guide:

An underlay is required to moisture proof the floor to be placed above.

It is very important that suitable expansion joints are left at all the perimeters of the floor, bamboo expands and contracts as well as being hydroscopic, it also absorbs mousture from the atmosphere, adequate expansion is imperative, at least 2mm per meter is required.

Example, if you are installing in an area where the floor is:

6m x 8m then allow for 6×2=12mm and 8×2=16mm, best leave minimum 10 to 15mm.

If there is insufficient expansion your floor will buckle, bend, crack and split.

Follow the installation procedures, which are enclosed in the packaging boxes.

It is always better to get the floor installed by a licensed floor layer, they have the right experience and technical know – how to deal with various issues that nee to be taken care during the installation process.
