Choosing The Right Flooring For Your Bathroom
Choosing The Right Flooring For Your Bathroom
Ceramic & Porcelain
Ceramic & Porcelain are a very popular choice of flooring in your bathroom for many different reasons, its waterproof, its low cost and its very elegant. The difference between ceramic and porcelain is that porcelain is more durable, and dense. So taking these things into consideration porcelain would be the preferred choice out of those two for your next bathroom renovation.
Vinyl
Vinyl is also a very good option for your bathroom for the same reasons as ceramic and porcelain, it's durable and waterproof. For the price that it is it's a very good option for safety and looks. There are lots of colors out there for vinyl so take the time to see what color will fit the entire theme of your bathroom and home.
Carpet
Carpet is not a popular floor to be in a bathroom for many different reasons. Even though some may like the look of carpet, it is not a very safe or durable material to be in a bathroom because it is not waterproof like the other flooring we looked at. Because it's not waterproof over a small period of time it can cause mold and leaks. So if you're deciding what flooring you should choose in your bathroom, steer clear away from carpet.
Hardwood
Hardwood floors are a good option for a bathroom. There are some types of hardwood that are softer that will soak up more moisture so be sure to avoid those ones. Hardwood is not a cheap option but it can be very durable if taken care of properly. So make sure you choose the right option when renovating your bathroom.
