Hardwood flooring installation in a Baton Rouge, LA bathroom

Can you use engineered hardwood in a bathroom?


Hardwood flooring is impressive on nearly every level, and you might wonder if the engineered variety would allow you to floor your bathroom with good results. The excellent news is engineered wood is a perfect choice for your bathroom, and we are going to speak a little more about that in today's post, so read along with us now.

When only hardwood flooring will do

Solid hardwood flooring is never an option for any room that could become damp or experience frequent spills and splashes, such as bathrooms. However, engineered hardwood is an attractive option.

Since engineered products are constructed with various cross-grained layers, with special wood glue as an adhesive, the materials are stable, even when humidity is present. Of course, excessive moisture and dampness can cause problems in virtually any material; the average amount present in most bathrooms is not enough to be problematic for your engineered materials.

These floors are easy to install, which means your bathroom will not be out of commission for long periods, and you will still get the wood flooring you want. In addition, if you choose a prefinished material, you will indeed find the straight-out-of-the-box performance to be everything this room needs, without any additional labor or time to hold you from your family’s bathroom.
