I am contemplating redoing my bathroom floor.
Can anyone tell me the good/bad re: ceramic versus slate tile?
Which one would you get?
Many thanks.

IMO, slate would not look so good in a bathroom. It is rather plain.
Ceramic gives you thousands of possible decorating ideas. It is also
smoother and easier cleaned in the bath.

I think it's just a matter of personal preferrence. I agree with
Edwin, that slate would not look good if you just put it in most
bathrooms. Howver, if it was part of a particular good design and
consistent with the other materials in the room, then I think it could
look very nice.

Well - we are going to do our bathroom next year and we are doing slate.
I like the way it looks, especially with wood cabinets and beadboard.
Ceramic tile looks too institutional to me.

Doesn't slate require sealing?
