A toilet is a sanitation fixture used primarily
for the disposal of human excrement and
urine, often found in a small room referred to
as a toilet/bathroom/lavatory. Theword toilet may also be used, especially
in British English to describe the room
containing the fixture, for
which euphemisms such as restroom orbathroom are used in American English.

A bathroom is a room for personal hygiene, generally containing a bathtub or a shower. it characteristically contains a toilet and a sink; hence in North AmericanEnglish the word "bathroom" is commonly used tomean any room containing a toilet, even a public toiletn other countries, including the UK,Australia, Franceand Japan, homes may have a separate toilet. In Iranalmost all homes have two distinct rooms for
bathroom and toilet room.

Chamber pots were in common use in Europe fromancient times, even being taken to the Middle East by Christian pilgrims during the Middle Ages.
Chamber pots were frequently made of china or copper
and could include elaborate decoration. By the 16th century, cesspits and cesspools were
increasingly dug into the ground near houses inEurope as a means of collecting waste.
The construction of an underground network of pipesto carry away solid and liquid waste was only begun inthe 1880s.

American lavatories followed the pattern of constructingcesspools in urban areas, using the practise already established in Europe.
The chain-pull indoor toilet, invented in England in the
1880s, was soon introduced to America, in the homes of the wealthy and in hotels.
Flush toilets were introduced in the 1890s.
Edward and Clarence Scott began selling white perforated
toilet tissue during this era, bringing additionalconvenience to the American public, who had until thenrelied on rough paper for toilet use.

Bathroom floor tile is available in a surprising numberof materials. Ceramic, porcelain, and vinyl tiles are what come to mind first, and for good reason: They arethe most popular choices and perhaps the mostpractical. But there are many options available today,from wood and cork to stone and glass. Here is a quickguide to help you determine the best floor tile for yourbath.

Vinyl is the most popular
bathroom flooring material,because of its low cost andhigh degree of practicality. Itis well-suited for every bathroom in the house, fromthe master bath to the powder
room. Hands down, it beatsother popular choices forsafety, comfort, anddurability. Almost asimportant, vinyl tiles havecome a long way in aesthetic
appeal and ease of installation. The material isself-adhering and can be cut
with a utility knife. Pricesstart at $.95 per square foot.

Nothing looks better than ceramic or porcelain, whether your tastes run to stone or wood lookalikes or brilliantcolors and surprising patterns. Ceramics score high withregard to maintenance, too, but they are not nearly ascomfortable to the bare foot as vinyl. Installing radiantfloor heat helps to change that, but a hard surface is hard
whether or not it's warm. Ceramics are not as easy to installas vinyl, though it is a job the adventurous do-it-yourselfercan tackle. When protected with a high-grade glaze,
ceramic will resist wear and scratches. Porcelain tiles areharder than clay-based tiles and may have through-body color, an advantage if chipping occurs. Prices start ataround $1.09 per square foot.

Plastic laminate tiles (more commonly available as planks)are also a good choice, especially if you're remodeling.Similar to the laminate material that covered kitchencountertops for a generation or two, the tiles don'tsignificantly raise the height of the existing floor, whichmakes it easier to plan transitions from room to room.
While durable and easy to keep clean, laminate falls short when it comes to moisture. Standing water can infiltratethe fiberboard core, causing the material to expand andbuckle. With laminates, it's critical to caulk gaps along the
walls, around the tub, and surrounding other fixtures toprevent water infiltration. Another con: Laminates don'tcome in the same variety of styles you'll find with ceramicsand vinyl. From $.49 per square foot.

Stone tiles were once confined to the foyer. In the pastdecade, however, they have become popular in otherrooms as well, bathroom included. Made fromlimestone, marble, granite and slate, stone tiles areavailable in colors that range from creams to blues,
reds, greens and golds. Available textures are nearly asnumerous and include cleft, tumbled, sandblasted,etched and flamed variations. Stone requires moremaintenance than ceramic tile; regular cleaning and
sealing are recommended. Plus, stone is typically moreexpensive than similar-looking ceramic or porcelaintiles. Prices vary.

Wood is only for the fearless. Once water penetratesthe finish, it will stain—probably for good. Duringinstallation, the wood parquet tiles must be carefully sealed around the room perimeter and at all other
joints. Two coats of polyurethane must then be appliedas protection. Use it in a powder room but avoid woodfloor tile in full baths that get a lot of use. Prices vary.

Linoleum is made of linseed oil, cork powder, woodflour, ground limestone and pigments. It is at home incontemporary or retro settings and well-suited to thebathroom. It's touted as naturally inhibiting the
growth of microorganisms and being able to repel dustand dirt, all while retaining its color. In my experience,that's hype. Click-in-place plank designs make it easy to install, and there is no doubt that the stuff looks
great. The look comes at a cost, however, as linoleum isrelatively expensive. Average cost per square foot: $4.

Cork is warm to the touchand very easy on the feet,and the tiles come tinted ina variety of colors.Installation is not difficult,but if you purchase
unfinished tiles, expect toprotect them with twocoats of polyurethane.Generally, cork tiles areinstalled with a troweled-
on adhesive, but click-in-place floating floorproducts are also available.
Average cost: $2 per squarefoot.

Glass f loor tile is about as different as you can get.Installed properly, this type of tile holds up well and if textured, it can resist slips. Small glass tiles with lots of grout joints are also slip-resistant. The aesthetic appeal
is twofold: Covering the floor in a thin layer of glasscreates the illusion of depth, and if the glass is tinted, you get a lovely stained-glass effect. Prices vary.
