Is cherry wood good flooring for the bathroom?

ADVICE

Reader’s question

"I have a very large oblong bedroom with cherry parquet flooring. I want to add a bathroom, and make it master suite. Should I keep the existing parquet flooring or should I replace it? There is a small window where the new bathroom will be. Will it provide adequate ventilation?”

Our recommendations

Cherry is considered a quite hard wood with a rich and unusual red-brown color, which adds warmth and style to any home.


Despite its many advantages, that make it suitable for the home, it is often recommended to avoid placing cherry flooring in wet areas, e.g. bathroom. Cherry wood tends to absorb moisture and goes moldy. The small window will not be enough for the new bathroom ventilation.
Consequently it is recommended to remove the wood floor where the nes bathroom is to be built. Moreover, plumbing work will be required for the new bathroom, including mandatory floor removal for the pipes to pass through.
So you can tile your new bathroom floor and match cherry wood in the rest elements of the bathroom area, such as bathroom vanity, interior door etc.
