More than a Bathmat

 | Bathroom floors need to be able to withstand damp humid conditions. For this reason, I would not recommend the fitting of wood or wood laminates to these areas. If you want wood effect in your bathroom vinyl wood planking is a good alternative. |
| Vinyl, vinyl tiles and linoleum make good flooring for bathrooms that will withstand any amount of splashing and still look good. Care should be take to avoid slipping on these floors. Some of these floors are non-slip, these should always be used for elderly or disabled persons. |  |

There are carpets specifically designed for use in bathrooms. These have a rubber, waffle backing and come in narrow widths to avoid waste.
These carpets will look good longer than ordinary carpets but eventually will succumb to damp and rot. If you want a carpet to look good in
your bathroom, I would recommend you buy a cheap felt backed one and replace it every 12 to 18 months.
