• How Does Bamboo Flooring Cope With Pets?

    Published on 05 Apr 2024

    If you like the look of wood floors but don’t want to worry about ongoing maintenance, especially when living with pets, bamboo is the best hardwood flooring option. 

    Here are a few reasons why bamboo flooring is great for homes with pets: 

    Scratch Resistance: Bamboo is naturally harder than many types of hardwoods, making it more resistant to scratches from pet claws. 

    Easy to Clean: Bamboo 's smooth surface makes it easier to clean and maintain compared to other flooring options like carpet. Regular sweeping or vacuuming is usually enough to keep bamboo looking clean even after your pet has left a trail of dirty paws. 

    Hypoallergenic: Naturally, Bamboo is antimicrobial meaning it repels mould, mildew and other allergens. Bamboo is less likely to trap allergens compared to carpet, which is beneficial if your pets shed fur or if anyone in your home has allergies. It helps keep the indoor air quality higher and is less prone to trapping pet dander and dust.

    Water Resistance: While bamboo isn’t completely waterproof, it does have a higher moisture resistance compared to traditional hardwoods. This means that small spills or occasional pet accidents are less likely to cause warping if cleaned up promptly.\
