If you’re in search of flooring that can withstand moisture and water exposure without compromising on style and durability, look no further! Read on to find out about the best flooring for getting wet.

We’re looking at the best flooring options for areas of your home that are prone to getting wet. Whether it's your bathroom, kitchen, laundry room, or any other space, here’s some water-resistant flooring solutions that are both functional and look good too!

Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT/LVP)

Luxury vinyl flooring is a popular choice for wet areas due to its incredible water resistance. With advanced technologies, LVT/LVP provides excellent protection against water damage while offering versatility in design options. Available in a wide range of colours, patterns, and textures, this type of flooring can mimic the look of hardwood, tile, and other natural materials.

Porcelain or Ceramic Tiles

When it comes to water-resistant flooring, porcelain or ceramic tiles are a top choice. Known for their extreme durability and impermeability, these tiles are resistant to stains, moisture, and even high humidity levels. With an extensive selection of designs, sizes, and finishes available, you can find the perfect tile to suit your style preferences.

Waterproof Laminate Flooring

Laminate flooring has come a long way in terms of water resistance. Nowadays, many manufacturers offer waterproof laminate options designed specifically for areas prone to moisture. With a protective layer and tight-locking installation systems, waterproof laminate flooring is an excellent choice for kitchens and other wet areas.

Epoxy Flooring

If you're looking for a durable and highly waterproof flooring solution for your garage, basement, or laundry room, epoxy flooring is a fantastic option. Not only is epoxy flooring resistant to water, but it also provides a seamless and easy-to-clean surface.

While these flooring options are great for water resistance, proper installation and maintenance are crucial to maximise their effectiveness. Ensure that the flooring is installed correctly and sealed properly to prevent any water damage over time. Regular cleaning and prompt cleanup of spills or standing water are essential to maintain the life span and appearance of your water-resistant flooring.

Before making a decision, it's always advisable to consult with flooring professionals who can assess your specific needs and provide personalised recommendations. They can guide you through the selection process, taking into consideration factors such as budget, style preferences, and the level of moisture exposure in your space.
