Bamboo Flooring Cupping - Prevention and Repairing

Cupping is a common problem with timber and bamboo flooring products. Cupping refers to the bowing of the material, resulting in a curved shape. Cupping is most commonly caused by moisture. The different sources of moisture include uncured concrete sub-floors, wet mopping, poor drainage, building leaks, leaking appliances, and moist concrete patches or levelers. Some other factors such as extremely dry conditions can also lead to cupping.
