The Road to a Maintenance Free Bathroom | Best Bathroom Materials

What are the best materials for bathroom interiors? Can your toilet floor handle the daily moisture abuse and damp conditions?

Today’s post looks at the top three materials for protecting and beautifying your bathroom.

Bathroom Flooring
One of the most damp, and bacteria- and mold-prone areas in your homes, which material is the best choice for your bathrooms?

Introduction | Best Bathroom Materials

While every material has its pros and cons, the most important consideration is the individual homeowner’s needs. The material with the most suitable properties should then be chosen.

For the bathroom, we’ve narrowed the most popular options down to the best three – Vinyl, Marble, and Metallic Epoxy.

With so many choices, we have selected the top 3 which we think are the best. ©giphy

The 3 Criteria | Best Bathroom Materials

The term best is highly subjective. Hence, in the context of a bathroom, we propose judgement by these specific criteria. Hygiene, Bathroom-Specific Damage, and General Suitability.

Hygiene | Best Bathroom Materials

A bathroom is a special place. You go in dirty and come out squeaky clean. There’s no explaining that, it’s just magic!

But the amount of organic debris, dirt, and bacteria you leave behind are anything but magical. Hygiene is a measure of how much non-magical grossness your interior material traps, and how easy it is to clean.

Bathroom-Specific Damage | Best Bathroom Materials

The bathroom does not see as much traffic or physical stress as the living room or kitchen. However, it’s exposed to more chemicals and water than every other room in the house combined.

This category includes near-constant exposure to cleansers and abrasives (exfoliants, anyone?), water of varying pH levels, and good old overzealous scrubbing.

No, your toilet bowls may not explode. But the constant exposure to moisture and water, can your bathroom floors handle the daily abuse? ©giphy

General Suitability | Best Bathroom Materials

The last category is a catch-all for any remaining aspects of material suitability. This includes changes in material integrity or appearance over time, or how slippery it is when wet.

Vinyl  | Best Bathroom Materials

Vinyl has been a popular material for a very long time. Thanks to its low cost, durability, and multitude of design ideas options.

Ordinarily, vinyl is installed on tiles to take full advantage of its low cost of replacement. However, bathroom installations typically demand large sheets of vinyl. Since vinyl tiles have seams that let water enter the surface and pool beneath the tiles.

Considering this, just how well do vinyl sheets fare in the bathroom?

Hygiene 

Vinyl is non-porous and doesn’t trap organic debris, meaning bacteria and scum find it difficult to take root.

It’s also relatively tough and can be cleaned well, but mind what you use, stiffer brushes could scratch the vinyl. Vinyl is chemical resistant as well and can be cleaned with normal household cleansers.

Bathroom-Specific Damage 

The two biggest sources of damage in the bathroom are water and chemicals from hygiene or conditioning products.

Vinyl is waterproof and chemical-resistant, making these matters a non-issue. However do note, water may pool beneath and cause a different set of problems. Natural rubber products like non-slip surfaces will also permanently discolour your vinyl, especially in the bathroom where wet surfaces abound.

Overall passable in bathrooms for short term use, but no rubber products.

Remember, vinyl is an overlay material which is glued/stuck to your current floor. However, an improper waterproofing job will result in more than just slight popping; it may promote bacterial and mould growth. ©thespruce

General Suitability 

Smooth vinyl gets slippery when wet and present a huge problem in the bathroom. Thankfully, textured vinyl is widely available, but may be more difficult to clean. Vinyl also doesn’t age well and may warp or crack as it degrades, trapping water beneath it.

Alright for short- to medium-term usage, not ideal for long term.

Marble |  Best Bathroom Materials

Marble is an old-world material used in posh hotels and luxury homes. While it has notably terrible durability and poor economy, it is treasured for the beauty and character of its natural grain and colours. Since marble doesn’t do well in wet conditions at all, it is often paired with water-proof ceramic tiles in locations that you’d expect to get wet. If you choose to line your bathroom solely with marble, you’d have to use a sealant to waterproof the marble.

Hygiene 

Marble is a porous stone that traps organic debris easily and promotes bacteria growth. It also does not allow thorough scrubbing since it scratches easily.

This means frequent cleaning with soft rags and brushes are necessary to keep your bathroom in a habitable state. You may also be restricted to certain specialised cleaning chemicals, since the sealant may react with normal household cleansers.

Marble tiles also mean gaps and grout, which trap more debris and bacteria.

High effort involved in maintaining hygiene.

Bathroom-Specific Damage 

Marble is highly reactive and is easily stained by many liquids, including non-pH-neutral water.

In addition to chemicals from bathroom products like hair dye or cleansers. There are many ways that bathroom marble can get permanently disfigured. The high level of moisture in a bathroom also rusts iron deposits in some types of marble, resulting in permanent discolouration.

Overall, terrible for unsealed marble, potentially dangerous for sealed marble.

General Suitability 

Sealed marble is slippery when wet. Ideally, ceramic tiles which match the marble could be used to line the floors, providing better grip while preserving the theme of the bathroom.

High maintenance is required since any breach in the marble sealant could result in permanent and widespread discolouration.

High maintenance required, some compromise on material is advised.

Constant polishing and high maintenance is require to keep your expensive marble looking sharp. But is the hassle and high costs worth it? ©srucarpetcleaning

Metallic Epoxy | Best Bathroom Materials

Metallic Epoxy is remarkably competitive in all its properties and truly shines in the bathroom.

Best Materials For Bathroom
From out of this world galaxy themes, metallic epoxy designs are limited only to the imagination.

Hygiene 

Being non-porous, seamless, and chemical-proof to household chemicals make Metallic Epoxy a dream to keep clean.

It doesn’t trap any grime or house bacteria, while NOT REQUIRING to do regular and vigorous scrubbing.

A no-brainer here, perfect.

Best Materials For Bathroom
With different choices of top coat finishes available, from matte, anti-slip or gloss, each is catered for different frequency or traction requirements.

Bathroom-specific Damage 

Waterproof, highly chemical-resistant Metallic Epoxy shrugs off chemicals in the bathroom. A seamless surface means no openings that might allow leaks and pools beneath your toilet floors.

Probably the best material money can buy here.

Best Materials For Bathroom
As constantly mentioned, Metallic Epoxy Floorings are seamless and non-porous, making it both waterproof and stain-proof.

General suitability 

While smooth epoxy or polyurethane is slippery when wet. The Metallic Epoxy installed in the bathroom is often finished with a rougher, slip-proof surface for safety.

This finish is also tougher than a perfectly smooth epoxy finish, giving you extra protection.

No shortcomings.

Best Materials For Bathroom
The protective topcoat literally does what it is supposed to do: protect your gorgeous epoxy flooring.

Conclusion | Best Bathroom Materials

Unsurprisingly, Metallic Epoxy is the overall winner. Vinyl is competitive but ultimately loses out in the long run. Marble is only ever chosen for its aesthetics, but since there’s no accounting for taste, we felt marble deserved a place on this list, if only for its rarely matched beauty.

Metallic Epoxy can be customized to your desired theme while offering you a whole array of protection that no other single material can. Find out more about what you can do for your Metallic Epoxy Bathrooms here!
