How do they look now after they have settled and what did they charge for treads? Cheers[/quote] Yes we got ours from UB...we have 3 lots of 3 steps throughout the area, and have done them all with bamboo. We used the stair nosing on the edges and then just the normal planks of bamboo for the rest. I think the nosing was about $33.00 a length - (I think). I will post some pictures asap..... Re: Bamboo Flooring and Timber Flooring 135Oct 20, 2013 11:04 pm YoullNeverWalkAlone Got our bamboo floor from UB Trading and very happy with it. We installed it about 6 months ago, so thought its about time we put some pictures up. Great floor, great quality and easy to install, grade A, 14mm carbonised bamboo floor. Due to the time constraints, we had a professional installer who did the install of it and in the 25 years that he has been doing this, he reckons is one of the best floors he has worked with. We paid $35 per sqm including the underlay. No complaints as far as the product goes. Had a bit of an argument with the seller, but this was eventually sorted out. One word of advice, if for whatever reason you decide to change the batch you want your order to be in (even though we notified him weeks in advance), you better be prepared to have an argument with the seller. Not the kinda guy who likes the change. I could understand the minor inconvenience to him, but his attitude and approach was a bit unprofessional IMO. Other than that and based on the product itself, highly recommended.

I got two samples from UB, and one was very light coloured and the other quite dark. This appears to be somewhere in between, which is what we're after. Re: Bamboo Flooring and Timber Flooring 136Oct 21, 2013 7:59 am that looks like carbonized - which is what we have. Bamboo only comes in light wood,,,to get colours they dye it which means the colour doesnt go all the way through. However, carbonized (coffee colour) is actually steamed to get the colour - so it does go all the way through. When I get time I will post pictures, but at the moment fighting to get ready for the final this week... Engineering timber is certainly a less fuss option, times cheaper to supply and install and better withstands humidity. 1 15884 Staircases and sausages.

From everyone's experience, what would you install? Timber lapped and capped OR colorbond? Thank you. 0 2861 |
