Best Waterproof Floors For Bathrooms
What are the best waterproof floors for bathrooms and wetrooms? Due to their waterproof qualities, we recommend luxury vinyl tiles and planks, cushioned vinyl and some laminates. Before we show you the top 10 best waterproof floors, let’s understand what is important for your bathroom flooring.
What To Look For With Waterproof Floors For Bathrooms
Regarding waterproof flooring, especially waterproof floors for bathrooms, there are two demands: performance and appearance. Beyond 100% water resistance, the best waterproof floors should be designed to meet these demands to outlast others.
- PERFORMANCE: Waterproof floors should be fit for purpose; essentially, they must be watertight. In addition, they must perform safely when wet and are specifically designed to be slip-resistant, so your floor is both safe and waterproof in rooms with lots of moisture.
- APPEARANCE: Whether stone, wood or decorative, a rustically realistic-looking floor finishes your room. You should look for an organic-looking floor with superior water protection that requires minimal maintenance.
