Mate, I was doing the same research, I shop around for 4 weeks recently, here is what I had,
1. DO NOT BUY bamboo floor, for whatever reasons, if you pick up bamboo, you will be regret after a few years, the reason everyone was pushing you for bamboo is they have a big margin, and deadly easy for those to do the installation. do your own research, bamboo take 3 to 5 years to grow up, and it is sallow and thin, they put them into piece and using the glue & pressure, so how can that compare with the solid timber that grow for more than 10 or 20 years??? remember YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. it does't matter how good the sales guy describe the bamboo floor, the gap is always there.
2. if you live in a house, buy the solid timber but don't pick Kampus, don't go 大自然 : ) I had that floor 5 years ago, don't want that any more. there is one figure associate the hardness of the floor, pick up the ones that above 9, e.g. the spotted gum is 11 from what I remembered.
3. if you select the engineered floor, they put some layers in between, therefore when you step on it it feel so soft and feeling is really wired, and you won't have the same look as illustrated on the photo, that just for marketing purpose.
4. when I shop around last month, the cheapest good one is 70/m2 include labour (without bargain)
5. make sure they provide at least 7 years installation warranty and 10 or 20 years material warranty. and make sure you can find the guy when some issue happened with your floor. if they have a store and running for many many years, that should be ok, otherwise take your own risk.
6. do not get some guy from the news paper to do the installation for you, it is like gamble, you may be right, but if you wrong you are in deep shit. Get those ones who have a base that you can trace, the job looks simple, still quite a lot techniques to consider case by case.
7. ask for discount if you have large area, normally above 100m2
8. Do your own homework, just pick up 10 shops visit 3 or 4 per weekend. use internet as much as you can, maybe the information you trying to get is misleading, but at least you can cross reference them to build up your own.
9. maybe I am bullshit, but If for you own house, if you can install timber, go with timber. |
