What is an easy and inexpensive way to finish a bathroom floor?


Question:I just have particle board down there now and need some kind floor covering. It is a tiny bathroom, only about 45 square feet of floor space.

Answers:
If you're using anything but linolium of that particle board you're going to have to put down some plywood first. When particle board gets wet it expands like a ballon and gets soft. So, no tiles of any kind on top. You need a one piece floor and make sure you silicone around the edge so no water can sneak down there too.


try a big lots for peel & stick tile
1 ft. square stick on linoleum tiles. They`re inexpensive & there`s a large selection. Your local home improvement store will have them.
Better prime the particle board before it gets wet. I would use linoleum, you should be able to pick up a remnant for $60 or less.
