Materials and finishes
Sheet safety flooring in bathrooms and wet rooms
How it performs
- 1
Welded seams and coved edges leave no joint for water to enter, which matters where the whole floor gets wet.
- 2
Slip resistance is built through the material rather than applied to the surface, so it lasts as the floor wears.

Where jobs go wrong

Common questions
Does it look clinical?
Modern ranges include wood and stone effects that look far better than older safety vinyls.
Can it go over floorboards?
It needs a smooth overlay board first, boards telegraph through.
Not sure which option suits your property?
Most of these decisions come down to what is behind the wall and under the floor. A site visit settles it quickly.
