Solid wood flooring may appear attractive for bathrooms, but its high water susceptibility makes it a poor choice. Experts advise against using hardwood, as exposure to moisture can cause warping and distorting. Instead, homeowners can explore alternatives that replicate the aesthetics of wood while minimizing risks of water damage. Various flooring options designed to withstand humidity and moisture are now available, offering practical solutions for achieving a stylish and functional bathroom without compromising on appearance or durability.
Hardwood is generally considered a poor choice for a bathroom as it is highly susceptible to water damage. It can warp or swell when exposed to moisture.
I would strongly advise against using solid wood flooring in bathrooms as it will soon distort due to the high humidity levels.
There are plenty of options available that will offer the look and feel of wood but are designed and fitted in such a way as to reduce the chance of water permeating into the planks.
Even though solid or hardwood flooring in bathroom is usually described as a no-no, there are alternatives that look and feel like wood without the risks.
