When selecting the best bathroom flooring option for your home you may want to consider bathroom carpet as an alternative to traditional tile floors. This may seem like an odd choice for the bathroom environment because of the amount of moisture that bathroom floors must withstand. However, if you choose your bathroom carpeting carefully to be stain and mildew resistant it can be an excellent option. You must also ensure that the Empire Carpet backing you choose does not let water seep through into the padding beneath.

There are many carpeting options today which fall within these parameters. Installing carpeting in your bathroom provides warmth, softness and many beautiful pattern and color options. Carpeting can also be an economical flooring option for your bathroom, but there are a number of tips to keep in mind in order to make carpeting work well in the bathroom.

The material that your bathroom carpet is made from is very important, and experts recommend that carpet made from 100% Olefin is your best option. The adhesive you use is also very important, and you must ensure that it is an adhesive designed for indoor and outdoor use. It is advisable to purchase a commercial grade adhesive that is resistant to water and is solvent free.

When it comes to the type of pile you select, in general a lower pile is recommended because it will absorb less moisture. Minimizing the amount of moisture your bathroom carpet absorbs is very important, so if you choose to put Empire Carpet in your bathroom it's advisable to mop up any water that spills on the bathroom carpet with a wet-vac.
