How to Choose the Right Bathroom Flooring

When it’s time to remodel your bathroom, one of the most important things to consider is the material you use to cover the floor of this steamy, water-prone room. There are a variety of popular bathroom flooring options to choose from, including porcelain and ceramic tile, hardwood and engineered wood, and resilient flooring such as vinyl. Learn more about each option.

Porcelain & Ceramic Tile

Both porcelain and ceramic tile are durable flooring options that are ideal for any room that is exposed to a lot of moisture, such as the bathroom. Tiles come in a variety of sizes, and you can choose a contrasting grout color to add an extra element of design. To avoid chilly floors in the morning, consider installing a heating system under your tile. Whether you want to remodel a large master bathroom or redo a small bathroom, either tile is an excellent flooring choice.

Hardwood & Engineered Wood

While hardwood is a better flooring choice for the bathroom than carpet, the high moisture levels in a bathroom can be very problematic. An alternative is engineered wood because the bottom layers of an engineered hardwood floor hold up better to moisture than traditional hardwood. If you love the look of wood floors, another solution for the bathroom could be vinyl-based faux hardwood flooring or wood-look ceramic tile. A DreamMaker designer can further discuss these options for your custom bath remodel.

Resilient Flooring

Resilient flooring is a manufactured product category that may include vinyl, linoleum, cork, composition tile or rubber. You can get a variety of looks and firmness of surfaces with this option. Known for being easy to maintain, resilient flooring wears well but still offers a certain amount of give that resists buckling. Generally, this type of flooring is more affordable and easier to install than the material it mimics, such as wood or tile.
