Timber floor in bathroom
 

We are converting our existing kitchen into a bathroom & my wife is
set on a timber floor, but gets conflicting advice.

As it is a ground floor room, whatever we lay will have to be onto
concrete.

Can anyone advise of the draw backs of putting in a laminate or timber
floor type into such a bathroom

thanks

You don't want the benefits then? Only the drawbacks?

The main one being wood is entirely unsuitable unless caulked, varnished
and maintained with the attention you pay to ships decking, to being
constantly exposed to water.
