Yes, I am not stopping until this bathroom is done. How did I start this bathroom project After painting the walls a nice bright rose color and adding faux shiplap for under 40 Dollars, I installed vinyl tiles in the bathroom. I loved doing this project and you should definitely add a shiplap wall somewhere in your house, because it was so easy it looks awesome you can hide a bad looking wall easy faux shiplap is very affordable.
This project seemed pretty easy to do, was my first impression. Always read the instructions first The instructions said to wait at least 48 hours to get the tiles to acclimate.
When installed all the joints line up and it makes the printed wood pattern more obvious and fake looking. I completely agree, Mike. The random pattern of hardwood needs to be duplicated in vinyl tile, if you want a natural look. Adding a throw rug would only make things worse.
Thank you for saying this! They are slippery even when dry. The thought of falling on it horrifies me. It is so critical to have a good installer with an eye for good design as well. As I was walking through some that were finished. I said I want the LVP through out the whole house no breaks. Mine as far as I know will be the first like this in that area. I kept thinking after we ordered did I do the right thing?
Running the LVP through the whole house? Thank you Maria for this blog perfect timing. And mine just happens to be one of the farm houses. Yay for you and going with what you want! I agree, no choppy floors!
And who needs carpet in bedrooms? If clients would only listen to this! And not just with LVP, but with ceramic or porcelain wood look tiles, too.
Flow is so important, and flooring is an area where it can make or wreck it. Love this article. Curious, if your bathroom is perpendicular to your hall, how do you lay out the LVP in the bathroom?
Same as hall? Or perpendicular? My installer, when I did LVP in my upstairs throughout, balked at the bathrooms. He said the plank itself is waterproof, but it still has seams,so water intrusion is a possibility. I actually did a sheet vinyl that looks like hex tile, but I also completely renovated the bathroom.
I have no problem with bathrooms having a different flooring if it looks like a different material or actually is a different material. Basically, my take on all of this is make sure your look is cohesive. If you have old cabinets and put in LVP, you probably need to paint those cabinets to bring the whole look forward. So much is wrong and the flooring update makes it all worse. Honestly, like Maria said, a sheet vinyl in a cute hex pattern or even a solid would be better than the vinyl plank.
Are you talking specifically of LVP planks, that look like wood? I have actual white oak throughout, including my powder room, and tile in the rest of the bathrooms. Anyone know who sells it in the US? Excellent information. When we were replacing the twenty year old carpet in our master bathroom with tile, the tile store tried to talk me into wood look tile because it is so popular.
I said no, Maria says that would be old bathroom, new tile. So we put in simple white 12 x 12 tile which matched the size available 20 years ago. With updated lighting, plumbing fixtures, and shower door it all works beautifully at minimal cost and mess. We also renovated another bathroom which abuts real wood floors and we avoided wood look tile or flooring there as well.
Thanks, Maria! Your advice has been sooo helpful! Thank you Maria! I was just wondering how soon good advice would come related to this topic with so many of my friends and acquaintances ditching their current flooring for this type. What do I do if my bedroom is hardwood which leads to a tiled bathroom and then enters a closet with carpet.
The carpet needs to be replaced. Do I just replace with carpet? No other space in the downstairs has carpet. I agree with needing a good installer for wood plank LVT. Too many new homes in my area have the joints in line which screams fake wood.
Given the multitude of houses online with bad LVP, everyone should read this post! Because we want to move to a different state, I look at a lot of houses. I look at an otherwise nice house and scream internally, because they have ruined it.

If you are planning to put vinyl floor tiles in your bathroom, start with a perfectly flat and waterproof floor surface. While sheet vinyl can be installed on a floor regardless of whether it is perfectly flat or not, vinyl tiles are constrained by the same installation parameters as ceramic tile in that they need a perfectly flat surface.
You may need to apply a self-leveling product on the floor to make it flat enough for installation of vinyl tiles by filling up any low spots on the floor. These compounds are available at any home improvement store.
