Would you like the elegance and durability of bamboo flooring in your home? At A & N Flooring, we have been providing quality bamboo flooring for more than three decades. Today, there are any different styles and species available, and demand for this stylish, strong, and eco-friendly product is is higher than ever before.
Stylish and strong
Bamboo is an increasingly popular flooring material because it looks similar to hardwoods, and offers comparable strength and durability. With new manufacturing techniques such as strand weaving, some types of bamboo flooring can reach the upper range of the Janka hardness test, which measures wood’s resistance to pressure and wear.
Eco-friendly
Bamboo flooring is environmentally friendly, because it is a highly renewable source of material.While it takes 20 to 120 years for traditional hard woods to mature, bamboo can reach maturity in just 3 to 5 years.
Bamboo can sequester up to 70% more carbon per year than a hardwood forest, and in a sustainably harvested forest, only a fifth of the forest is harvested annually, allowing for a complete harvest over five years. Bamboo also has few pests, so doesn’t need pesticides, irrigation, or fertilizer in its natural environment.
Ask us about our bamboo floor products, which are certified to the Forest Stewardship Council’s standards for environmental sustainability and social responsibility.
Types of bamboo flooring
We offer a wide range of bamboo flooring products, and we can advise you on which types would best meet your specific flooring needs. For instance, strand bamboo flooring is ideal for high-traffic areas in both residential and commercial environments, while engineered bamboo flooring combines beauty and durability for living, dining, and reception areas. We offer all our bamboo flooring products in a variety of styles, from traditional to contemporary.

Are you interested in oak flooring? Oak, specifically red oak, is the most common wood floor used in North America. It is characterized by its resilience, strong grain patterns, honey colors, and affordability.
Holds up to wear and tear
Red oak has a Janka hardness rating of 1290, and this high density means it is highly resistant to dents, dings, scratches, and splitting. Red oak is hard enough to resist the everyday wear and tear of a busy family, and it is an excellent option for living areas, hallways, foyers, and kitchens. In basements, bathrooms, and other high moisture areas, engineered flooring is a better option than solid hardwood.
Distinctive texture
Thelarge pore structure of red oak flooring results in a strong, open grain pattern which can make a statement in any room. The more consistent this grain pattern, the more expensive the floor will be.
Available in a range of colors and stains
Red oak is not red as the name suggests, but a pale gold with streaks of rich reds and pale pinks. Red oak holds wood stains evenly, and it comes in a wide variety of stain colors from light to dark.
An economic option
The reasonable price tag is another reason our customers love oak flooring.Because red oak trees are abundant, the red oak wood used in flooring is also very affordable.

Maintenance of today’s wood floors is easy! New technology in stains and finishes call for regular cleaning that takes little more than sweeping and/or vacuuming, with occasional use of a professional wood floor cleaning product.

This will ensure that you use the proper cleaner for your type of flooring and finish.
