RE: DIY Project: Laminate floors in a bathroom
Hello my friend.
Please tell me which laminate class did you use?
I would also like to know how you solved the problem of high humidity with this kind of flooring? That is, will you cover the boards with some kind of wax or varnish?
Good luck! :)
Thanks for checking it out! This particular floor none is needed, it is partially water resistant where you don’t need an additional finish. If you are worried about high humidity areas I would recommend vinyl plank floors. We did that in our bathroom because it is 100% waterproof.
That floor right there is vinyl. It looks very similar to laminate except it’s made from plastic where laminate is made from wood. If you put a floor that is susceptible to water damage it will warp the boards quickly I realized the hard way.
ABOUT! In that case, I am calm. Because I was sure that you put a wooden floor)
But in my experience, I believe that linoleum and tile remain the best coatings for wet areas. The first option is cheap, and the second for ages! :)
