I'm not sure about home building contractors, but for floor installation-- if you're dealing with marble flooring, terrazzo flooring, or tile flooring, I would check these out:
www.marblefloorpolishing.com www.cleaningterrazzo.com www.groutcleaning.com They're sites on cleaning, but they have geographical directories of contractors all over the US. Hope this helps ![]() |

You're right, there are other ways of cleaning that require no chemicals. For instance, polishing marble floors is a great way to improve your home or business without using any materials that would harm the environment. If you would like to check out more information on this green process, check out http://www.marblefloorpolishing.com

Marble is an incredible natural material to use for flooring... and the best part is that polishing it requires no harmful chemicals. You can get LEED credits for using it, and it looks gorgeous in homes and businesses alike. I've found a lot of great information about polishing marble floors at http://www.marblefloorpolishing.com . If you're thinking about installing marble in your house, or you want to refinish it, it's a great place to go. They have a pretty extensive directory of contractors by area, as well. I would highly suggest checking it out

If you are in the HVAC business, you might check out FlexRight at the upcoming ASHRAE show in
Orlando. Makes a great energy upgrade / weatherization up-sell product. It will be on display at booth #2019. www.FlexRight.net |

Although you have probably come to your decision about the type of flooring to choose for you new townhouse, I thought I would post for others with the same/similar question.
Quote There is no question that bamboo is a renewable resource- it is a grass and grows very quickly. Where oak takes 120 years to grow to maturity, bamboo can be harvested in three. It is recognized as a green material under LEED and as they said in Environmental Building News, “Environmentally, it’s hard to argue with a wood substitute that matures in three years, regenerates without need for replanting, and requires minimal fertilization or pesticides.” Quote Bamboo flooring is a wonderful hard surface that resembles traditional oak hardwood flooring. People like bamboo hardwood flooring because bamboo floors have a light grain and are very durable. And here is an article on 'finding a floor that's pet friendly' which also talks about bamboo flooring Cheers |
