This pattern is created with low VOC paint rather than vinyl wallpaper. Vinyl wallpaper should almost always be avoided because:
Composite floor tile is very durable and bacteria resistant, which makes it a great option for the bathroom floor. The surface is very smooth and easy to clean without any specialized products. Additionally, there are many color and pattern options to suit any home’s aesthetic.
Because water can get stuck in grout lines, it is a common place for homeowners to find mold growing. Composite floor tile requires no grout to install, eliminating mold growth risk.
Composite floor tile is more difficult than traditional flooring options to install as the underlay has to be thoroughly inspected for any bumps or uneven surfaces. Even a slightly uneven edge in the underlay can damage the floor significantly and cause cracking.
The glazed finish of the sink and toilet are double-coated in a permanent finish to prevent the growth of bacteria that causes stains, bacteria, mold, and mildew.
