Installing wooden floors is a way to provide warmth to the bathroom area. When used in other areas of the house, wooden floors tend to be easier to maintain. However, there are several drawbacks when used in the bathroom. When you use the shower, bathtub, or basin, water will splash onto the floor area.

When continuous water exposure, wooden floors can be damaged, some of the damage that may happen is the floor expanding, warping, and stained. However, there are still many people who want to use wooden floors in the bathroom. Apart from its attractive look, wooden floors are warmer than tile floors.

If you want to use wooden floors in your bathroom, then you need to protect them. Apply a coating fluid or sealant that creates an invisible layer of protection on the wood. It will make the wood more resistant to water damage.

Apart from applying a protective liquid, every time you shower, you must immediately clean up any water spills so that the protective layer is maintained. Another alternative that you can use is to replace solid wood flooring with laminate wood flooring and wood-patterned vinyl flooring.
