What's a good alternative to Tile in a Bathroom Floor?

[CO Hummer]

It's looking like we're going to tile our two new bathroom floors unless I can find an alternative.

Is there any good product OTHER than tile to use? Maybe a cement product? I don't really want something that's cold on the feet though, and I'm NOT going to use the water heated floors (it's a long story, but you can't get it done for a reasonable price where I live).

What can I do? Stacy, are you there?

Not Pergo for sure.

Dirt Floors are great !

You can freshen them up everyday with just a shovel. you can change the pattern by adding sand lines and when it gets cold cover the dirt totally with sand as it doesn't get cold if kept dry. During the summer months just add a little water and the bathroom will stay nice and cool. By microwaving your dirt and sand you will keep bacteria to a minimum. And of course the cost is minimal compared to other surfaces...

Not a fan of the third world country decor myself....

Now that's what I like, some creativity.

When we were browsing on the 'net looking at places out there, we noticed alot of homes have carpet. EEeeewwww....

You could go with a linoleum product. They've come a long way since the garbage of the late seventies and early eighties.

You probably already have this planned, but in the full bath/baths, put in a heat lamp just outside the shower/tub so when you're drying off you have that nice warm heat bathing you. That should help if you have to use tile.

I'd use tile with multiple rugs.

Didn't you get my email about the flooring guy? Just call him and ask. He may have some really cool ideas for a bathroom floor.
