Follow up from yesterdays post on washing hardwood floors.

Yesterday I was asked a question regarding washing hardwood floors. I got an email almost right after that post went live and then someone asked me about installing hardwood floors into a bathroom and what can be done to prevent mold, and swelling of the wood.

I have a simple answer to that question. DON’T install hardwood into your bathroom. That truly is the silliest thing I have ever seen people do. Your asking for an insurance claim or to lose all the money you invested in the project in the first place.

A bathroom is the worst place ever to put wood on the floors. That is the room where the most water hits the floor from getting out of the tub, or from your toilet tank sweating. My tip for this is simply don’t do it. Your asking for trouble!
