The Best Flooring For Bathrooms

The best flooring for bathrooms is waterproof luxury vinyl plank (LVP), as it combines complete moisture resistance with the aesthetic appeal of timber or stone. Unlike traditional tiles, LVP is warmer underfoot, slip-resistant when wet, and easier to install without grout lines that can harbour mould and mildew. Quality LVP options feature thick wear layers for scratch resistance and come with long residential warranties, making them both practical and cost-effective for wet, high-traffic bathroom environments.

Our Store Managers see every kind of bathroom challenge—from family bathrooms to ensuites – and they’ve identified the best solutions for moisture-prone spaces.

Our Bathroom Pick: Robert Malcolm Moduleo Select

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is an excellent, waterproof and cost-effective flooring choice for bathrooms. It delivers the look of timber or stone while offering superior moisture resistance and durability. LVP is scratch-resistant, slip-resistant, and warmer underfoot – making it a practical and comfortable option for wet, high-traffic spaces.

One of our most popular bathroom picks is Robert Malcolm Moduleo Select. Designed for everyday living, it combines stylish, realistic designs with outstanding performance, giving you peace of mind in a busy bathroom without compromising on looks.
