Why do some want to have carpet on the floor in the bathroom? Most likely a main reason is that they don’t want a cold floor under their feet in the morning when going to the bathroom, but is this really a wise decision? The short and simple answer is no. Carpet has many issues that are worsened by the environment you find in your bathroom.
With all the moisture and steam that is created in your bathroom, you can expect things like mold to start growing very easily. On top of that, there are many hygiene concerns. If you currently don’t have carpet, but are considering it, take a closer look at the floor around your toilet. Unless you, your family and everyone who visits you are extremely careful, you will find a lot of bacteria and other things on the floor, and having carpet just makes it that much more difficult to clean it well. If you already have carpet in your bathroom, you should steam clean it frequently.
