What Flooring Material Is Best for My Bathroom?

Choosing a material for your bathroom floor is different from choosing flooring for other areas in your home. Once you get past the usual factors like durability, looks, and cost, you have to consider one more major thing: water resistance.

With this consideration, here are some options from your trusted remodeling contractor, JLR Home Renovation.

Tile Flooring

This is one of the best options for moisture-prone areas at home. There are many different types of tile, from ceramic to natural stone, each with their own unique beauty and benefits. Ceramic, for instance, is low-maintenance, waterproof, and highly durable. It also comes in a myriad of colors, styles, and sizes.

We recommend textured tiles if mobility is a concern as these provide more secure footing. If you’re looking for a tougher material, why not try porcelain? It’s an extra durable form of ceramic and it doesn’t allow the penetration of moisture. It can be designed to mimic the look and feel of stone at a lower cost.

Marble Flooring

This is a great choice for bathroom remodeling, but it’s important to check with a professional first to ensure that your structure can support its weight. Marble can provide your bathroom with a smooth and durable flooring that looks elegant and appealing. Pair this classy floor with soft gold fixtures and warm lights for a luxurious bathroom.

Vinyl Flooring

If you’re looking for a low-maintenance and affordable option, we recommend vinyl. It comes in a wide range of style and color options and has very few seams. In fact, other versions of this material like sheet vinyl can have zero seams in a small bathroom. This means complete protection from water-related damage. This is an ideal flooring choice for rooms where extreme amounts of water are expected like laundry rooms or children’s bathrooms.
