What Makes Good Bathroom Flooring?

bathroom flooring

When it comes to updating your bathroom, something that is often overlooked is the floor. But the flooring can completely change the look and feel of your bathroom. When you’re looking for quality and affordable bathroom flooring options, Place N’ Go by SelecTech has the best products available.

 

Here are some of the key characteristics of good bathroom flooring.

 

Water Resistance

The bathroom is prone to water splashes and spills, so the flooring material should be highly resistant to water damage. Look for options like ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles, vinyl, or natural stone that are impervious to water.

 

Slip Resistance

Safety is crucial in the bathroom, where surfaces can become slippery when wet. Choose flooring with a textured or non-slip surface to minimize the risk of accidents. Look for materials with a high slip resistance rating, such as textured tiles, cork, or certain types of vinyl.

 

Durability

Bathrooms experience heavy foot traffic and exposure to moisture, so the flooring should be durable and able to withstand these conditions. Opt for materials that are known for their durability, such as porcelain, ceramic, or natural stone tiles.

 

Easy Maintenance

Bathrooms require regular cleaning, so the flooring should be easy to maintain. Select materials that are resistant to stains and easy to clean, such as glazed ceramic or porcelain tiles, vinyl, or laminate.

 

Mold and Mildew Resistance

Bathrooms are prone to high humidity levels, making them susceptible to mold and mildew growth. Choose flooring that is mold and mildew resistant, such as porcelain tiles or certain types of vinyl. It’s also important to ensure proper installation and regular cleaning to prevent moisture buildup.

 

Aesthetic Appeal

The bathroom is a space where aesthetics matter. Consider flooring options that complement your desired design style and overall bathroom theme. There are numerous flooring materials available, including tiles in various colors, patterns, and textures, as well as natural stone options like marble or granite.

 

Comfort and Warmth

Bathrooms can be cold and unwelcoming, so you may want to consider materials that offer warmth and comfort underfoot. Cork or certain types of luxury vinyl flooring with built-in underlayment can provide a softer feel and better insulation.
