BLUESTONE — bathroom

3/5 suitability

Durable and naturally hard, making it suitable for bathroom floors and walls. Offers non-slip properties with certain finishes. Retains heat, which can be pleasant for bathroom flooring. Provides a natural, timeless aesthetic.

Considerations

Traditional bluestone (sandstone/limestone) is porous and susceptible to staining and etching from toiletries and water if not properly sealed. Can be slick if algae grows in shaded/wet areas (less common indoors but possible). Can be cold underfoot. Dark colors can show water spots more readily.
