bathroom tiling vs LVP

Posted

For my STR, should I be using waterproof LVP or regular tiles for the bathroom floors? Does it matter?

Tile is far superior for this application. When they call lvp waterproof they mean that the surface of each plank is waterproof. When you install them clicked together, that creates the seam that water can and will penetrate.

Tile it.
