The basics
Whatever you choose, check its slip resistance, and consider underfloor heating.

Porcelain floor tiles
The most common bathroom floor: tough and water-resistant.
Natural stone floors
Beautiful and durable, but needs sealing; some stones get slippery.
Vinyl and LVT
Warmer and softer underfoot, water-resistant and budget-friendly.
Microcement floors
Seamless and continuous, including into a wet room.
Slip resistance
Floors are rated for grip. Choose a higher rating in wet areas.
