LVT vs Vinyl Cushion Flooring vs Tiled Floors: Which Is Right for Your Bathroom?

Choosing the right bathroom flooring isn’t always simple. There are so many stylish and practical options available today that it can be hard to know where to begin. At Rubberduck Bathrooms, we often get asked the same question — should I go for LVT click flooring, vinyl cushion flooring, or stick with traditional tiles? Each has its own benefits, depending on your needs, style, and budget. Let’s break down the differences to help you make the right choice.

LVT Click Flooring

LVT Click Flooring

LVT click flooring (Luxury Vinyl Tile) is a popular modern option that clicks together for a secure fit, no glue needed. It’s completely waterproof, making it perfect for bathrooms. It mimics the look of real wood or stone, but it’s easier to install and maintain.

Pros:

  • Waterproof and ideal for wet areas

  • Durable and scratch-resistant

  • Quick click-fit installation (DIY friendly)

  • Realistic textures like wood or slate

  • Suitable for underfloor heating

Vinyl Cushion Flooring

Vinyl Cushion Flooring

Vinyl cushion flooring is soft underfoot and comes on a roll, so it’s laid in large sheets. It’s warm, comfortable, and budget-friendly — great if you want a fast upgrade without spending too much.

Pros:

  • Soft, cushioned feel underfoot

  • Quiet and warm, ideal for family bathrooms

  • Very affordable

  • Waterproof and easy to clean

  • Huge variety of patterns and colours

Tiled Bathroom Floors

Tiled flooring has long been a go-to choice for bathrooms. From sleek porcelain tiles to traditional ceramic tiles, there’s a timeless quality to tiled floors that many homeowners love.

Pros:

  • Extremely durable and waterproof

  • Great for underfloor heating

  • Available in a huge range of sizes and finishes

  • Adds value and a luxury finish to your space

Cons:

  • Can feel cold or hard underfoot without heating

  • Requires more effort to install

  • Grout needs regular cleaning

Which Bathroom Flooring Is Best for You?

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. It depends on your priorities.

  • Choose LVT click flooring if you want something stylish, waterproof, and easy to install.

  • Go for vinyl cushion flooring if you need a comfortable, budget-friendly floor that’s quick to fit.

  • Opt for tiled flooring if you’re after a high-end, long-lasting finish and don’t mind investing in installation.

Whatever your choice, Rubberduck Bathrooms has got you covered.
