If you’re buying a luxury home for sale in Charlotte – particularly one that may need a few upgrades in the bathroom, check out the three best flooring options available. You might be surprised at the difference a new luxury bathroom floor can make!

You need a handful of features from your bathroom floor. It needs to be durable, look good, and be cost-effective.

Other than that, you’re free to use your creativity to turn an ordinary bathroom into a luxury retreat – and these three flooring options can help you do just that.

Porcelain or Ceramic Tile

Porcelain and ceramic tile gives the room a rich, textured look, and it’s waterproof and cost-effective. Usually, porcelain is better in bathrooms with showers and tubs because it has a water absorption rate of 0.5 percent or less (and ceramic doesn’t).

Natural Stone

Marble, granite and other natural stone can be a beautiful addition to your bathroom, but it has a few drawbacks. It’s cold, and it can be slippery (unless you use one that’s naturally textured, like slate, or have the stone sandblasted before installation).

Cork

Cork is a great option for flooring in a luxury bathroom. It’s waterproof, warm and resilient, which means it’s a great choice. There is one catch, though: It’s susceptible to staining, even though it’s moisture-proof. That means if you spill something, you’ll need to clean it up immediately. You’ll also need to have your cork floor re-sealed every few years to keep it looking good.
