Critical step in the flooring installation

A critical step in the flooring installation process is preparation; bamboo floors must be moisture acclimated for a minimum of 72 hours prior to installation, and the installation area should be maintained at a temperature between 20 and 24 degrees and within a humidity range of at all times during the installation.

In new buildings, flooring should be the very last item installed to prevent damage. Prior to flooring installation, the subfloor must be thoroughly cleaned and flat (maximum variation of 4mm over a three metre radius). If possible, the subfloor may need to be sanded or filled to create an even, flat surface.

Astoria Floors uses trained and experienced installers who will provide you with the very best result and a breathtakingly beautiful finish. Our installers will take into account your needs and the specific job requirements to tailor a flooring installation that guarantees the highest quality workmanship.
