Water is the main villain to my house’s structural integrity, especially bathroom where moisture is a constant factor. This is why I have to remodel my kitchen and bathroom get more often than any other room in the home. I have recently asked my sister (who is into interior designing) to share some waterproof bathroom flooring tips:
How to Make Bathroom Floor Waterproof Install a waterproof floorIt is important to install the right type of flooring in a bathroom. There are a few standard organic options—bamboo, engineered wood, and hardwood— that do not perform very well, particularly in heavy-use family bathrooms.
A perfect pick for bathrooms is porcelain and ceramic tile, which now comes in styles that look like wood planks and other materials. Luxury vinyl planks and tiles would be another good pick. This type of vinyl is waterproof as it is crafted from solid inorganic material. Plus, luxury vinyl comes in styles that convincingly look like ceramics, stone, or wood.
Apart from picking a completely waterproof flooring material, please ensure the installation is watertight so that the moisture does not penetrate through the flooring to the subfloor and underlayment.

Caulk Every Crack and HoleBathroom-grade silicone-based caulk is essential when it comes to bathroom remodelling. Use it to seal practically every crack and hole between surfaces like between floors and walls, where plumbing fixtures meet countertops and floors, or where countertops meet walls.
It takes time to learn a good caulking technique but it will definitely ensure that your bathroom resists water’s effects.
