Mike did a great job for a very reasonable price, I highly recommend him.
Save yourself some grief and listen to the Panda. Then hire him to do the install.
It's fun to watch fat guys work, too. :bigsmile:



You're such a fucker.


:bigsmile: I really like my Bamboo flooring, it's the strand woven and very tough. I have 2 big Fat dogs, ( see, not hating the fatties ) and I have had no scratches anywhere from their nails.
Great floor, now get Mike to do yours

Your floors should hold up well, we nailed the hell out of them and you picked a good product. If you want me to come take a look at that chipping end butt let me know. I might be able to clean it up a bit for you.

If that requires him to take a look at your butt while you're doing it, I doubt you'll be getting a call.

Something tells me having to (getting to) look at my butt isn't a disqualifier here

Jesus. This is more depressing than a bump-stock thread.


If it makes you feel better I consider bump stocks, guns, optics, ammo and accessories to be legitimate forms of payment for my work. I also accept scantily clad pictures of usrifle's very pretty wife as payment, although she said that was just a tip. You knew about that, right Johnny? :peep:



Yeah, she has a thing for chubby flooring guys. I just have to deal with it.

Swing by if you are in the area sometime Mike, you can check out that chipping butt.
I will make sure the wife isn't home. :bigsmile:

Sinus knows his shit when it comes to flooring.

As far as his butt-checking, I will leave that to others that have experienced that :bigsmile: .

Sinus is a wealth of flooring knowledge. Thanks.

I'm am amateur at installing floors. I can comment on the short term installation of the actual bamboo that you're intending to install, but no experience with the click lock stuff.

I installed ~800 sq. feet of the bamboo planks, I think they were 5/8 or 3/4 inch thick. I had a dog. I can attest that they mar very easily. It's a soft material. It did look nice if you can overlook the marring.

I liked bamboo for the ecology of it - it's a grass and very affordable and grows quicker.

If you need something that won't easily mar, I can attest to Brazilian hardwoods like cherry. I installed that parts of my current house and with two dogs and over several years not a scratch.
