FAQ
Is LVT flooring suitable for bathrooms?
Yes, LVT flooring is an excellent choice for bathrooms. Unlike other flooring types, bathroom LVT flooring is 100% waterproof, making it ideal for wet environments. It won't warp, swell or deteriorate when exposed to moisture, steam or spills. LVT is also warmer and more comfortable underfoot than ceramic tiles, and it's compatible with underfloor heating. Its slip-resistant surface adds safety, while the realistic designs offer the aesthetic appeal of natural materials without maintenance concerns. For more guidance, read our comprehensive guide on what flooring is best for a bathroom.
Is LVT waterproof or water-resistant?
Luxury vinyl bathroom flooring is 100% waterproof when installed correctly. The entire plank or tile is impervious to water, meaning moisture cannot penetrate the material itself. This makes it superior to water-resistant options like laminate, which can only withstand limited moisture exposure.

How to lay LVT flooring in bathrooms?
Installing bathroom luxury vinyl tiles depends on the type you choose:
-
Click Bathroom LVT - Features an interlocking system for quick, adhesive-free installation. SPC click LVT is ideal if you want flexibility or plan to DIY. The floating installation allows for slight movement, which can be beneficial in rooms with temperature fluctuations.
-
Glue-down Bathroom LVT - Adhered directly to the subfloor for a permanent, ultra-stable finish. Glue-down dryback LVT is better for bathrooms with complex layouts or areas requiring seamless waterproofing at joins.

How do I clean luxury vinyl flooring in a bathroom?
LVT is exceptionally low-maintenance. Simply sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dust and hair, then damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner to keep the area sparkling clean. The waterproof construction means you can clean up spills and splashes immediately without worry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as they could damage the protective layer.
