Five Bathroom Flooring Options

When it comes to your bathroom flooring, there are many options from which to choose from.  As you consider what type of flooring you want in your bathroom always consider specific questions.  How durable is the flooring?  How does it feel on your bare feet?  Does it meet your design standards?  Below are five options when it comes to your bathroom flooring.

Carpet
This made our list only because of how important it is to not have carpet in your bathroom.  Moisture and carpeting are not two things that go hand in hand.  Try to avoid carpet in your bathroom at all costs.

Solid Hardwood
Although this choice is better than carpet, it is still not the ideal solution.  Hardwood flooring looks great and it even feels good under bare feet, but moisture kills solid hardwood.  If you must have hardwoods in your bathroom, hire a professional to do the job.

Laminate
Laminate flooring is a good choice when you want to protect your floors from moisture damage.  The design of a laminate floor is actually a picture of what you would like it to be.  You do have choices as to how you want your laminate to look such as oak, slate or even travertine. 

Stone
Although an expensive option, stone flooring looks exceptional and it can handle any moisture problems.  The downside with stone is it is cold and can be slippery when wet.  Oh yeah, did we mention it can be expensive too.

Ceramic Tile
Ceramic tile is an excellent choice for bathroom flooring.  Because there are many types of ceramic tile, there is something for every design taste.   

Hire a professional when you're looking to remodel your bathroom.  Their expertise and ability to offer a plan of attack for your remodeling project can be extremely valuable. Related Blogs
