Tiles absorb humidity when you are in the shower or taking a hot bath in your bathtub. This results in more grime in the grouts. Not only that, but your tiles will also become cracked due to which water will seep inside. It is better to choose normal-sized, textured tiles for the wet area floor so that water will not enter within the floor. Make sure that the tiles are mold resistant because dealing with water daily can make the tiles more vulnerable to catch mold.
Use Waterproof Plumbing By using waterproof plumbing fittings, we mean that the pipes and fittings of your toilet seat, washbasin, and other water line connections should be hidden. Seal all the existing plumbing and pipes with the help of different-sized sleeves
