Comment on How to Fix a Bubble in Bamboo Flooring by AJ

what you’ll need
• Sand Paper
• Polyurethane Finishing Varnish
• Crow Bar
• Concrete Moisture Barrier (sealant)
• Adhesive (to reapply the flooring)
• Instruments to Measure Moisture
Bamboo flooring is considered to be an ecofriendly substitute for hard wood flooring. It is made of flattened bamboo, which is a type of grass grown in Asian countries. It is tough and durable, because of which it is becoming a common flooring type.
Step 1 – Assessing the cause of Bubble Formation
Surface bubbles on a bamboo floor or any other wooden floor for that matter can have two major reasons. The first reason is normally that the polyurethane finishing varnish (the thing that gives a glossy finish) is applied incorrectly, leaving behind bubbles. This is relatively easy to deal with compared to the second cause of bubbles in a bamboo floor. The second major cause of bubbles in bamboo flooring is that the concrete under the floor was not treated for moisture control and was not leveled. It is also important to acclimate the flooring before installation.
Step 2 – Taking Action: Dealing With Bubbles in the Varnish
Dealing with laminate bubbles is easy. For this you will be required to sand the area with a small grit sand paper or you can use a sanding machine. Sand off all the polyurethane varnish, making sure you do not damage the flooring itself.
Step 3 – Reapplying the Laminate Coating
Once the bubbles have been sanded off, reapply the varnish for a clean, neat finish. You might need to sand a large portion of the floor to give an even finish.
Step 4 – Bubbles due to Moisture
In most cases, bubbles in the flooring are due to the up travel of moisture from the concrete. This leaves behind large swollen bubbles in the floor often followed by discoloration and fungal growth within the floor. If it is not immediately dealt with you might have to redo the entire flooring.
Step 5 – Removing the Affected Flooring
Therefore as soon as you spot a large bubble with slight discoloration you will have to remove the flooring in that area.
Step 6 – Measuring the Moisture Content and Temperature Condition of the Room
Once you have removed the flooring measure the moisture content of the floor and keep a check on the temperatures in the room. If the moisture in the floor has an evident cause you will have to deal with that first.
Step 7 – Treating the Concrete and Dealing with the Cause of the Moisture
In conventional wood floor application, the concrete is pretreated: sanded, leveled and a moisture block is applied to protect the flooring to be installed on top of it. But sometimes there are still leaks. If the moisture problem is only in that particular area, you may apply the concrete moisture barrier in that area again. But if there is an overall raised level of moisture in the concrete you will have to remove the entire flooring and retreat the concrete, otherwise the new bamboo flooring will be wasted.
Step 8 – Cautionary Steps When Installing Bamboo Flooring
Bubbles in varnish are easy to remove as mentioned before but moisture is a cause of great concern in most wooden flooring. Therefore before installing bamboo flooring, take your time to treat the concrete underneath. Never clean bamboo flooring with a dripping mop.

I have to agree, their isn’t much love going around for the east coast of the US. I live 15 minutes from Scranton PA and yes we do have a TV show that’s based on our town… only it’s not that useful when it comes to home makeovers, funny but not useful. Can you advise when either Holmes Inspection or Income Properties will be doing shows in my area? I’d like to be on one of those shows where I know for a fact I can trust the work will be 110% especially since most contractors (not all) tend to think “Oh, she’ll have no clue if it’s ok or not”. I’d like to turn the basement rec room into an apartment for 1 or 2 female students in the nearby college.
Thanks!

Hasn’t anyone noticed? They only help people who already were able to afford to start something in the first place. They avoid us poor folk like the plague, although I can’t blame them. No one wants to watch poor peoples houses, they want to see what wealthy people do and envy them. (myself included.) But it would be nice to see options for poor folk who don’t have 2000$ to make their living room look pretty, or 50 grand to throw at a bathroom in their 700,000$ house. Happy shiney faces people!
