Creating a Perfect Mudroom With Waterproof Floors

A mudroom serves as the gateway between the great outdoors and the sanctuary of your home. It’s a practical space designed to mitigate the mess and chaos often accompanying our comings and goings. This space is typically situated near the primary entrance, garage or other entry point where you would remove muddy boots and other outerwear items. 

Choosing the right flooring for a mudroom is key to the functionality of the space. District Floor Depot offers waterproof mudroom flooring that resists the elements while still looking attractive.

Our Mudroom Floor Selections

Whether from rain-soaked shoes, melting snow or muddy pet paw prints, moisture and dirt can quickly wreak havoc on traditional flooring materials like hardwood or carpet. We offer various waterproof flooring options to suit different preferences, including stylish Brazilian cherry vinyl, elegant faux marble and rustic weathered Acacia vinyl plank. 

How to Design the Perfect Mudroom 

Many home designs include a small entry area intended to serve as a mudroom. There are a few things you’ll want to consider installing here to get the most out of this space.

Whether you’re working with new construction or renovating, here are a few ideas for creating the perfect mudroom:

Wall cabinets- Make the most of your mudroom by adding wall cabinets to store bags and other items. 
Bench or place to sit- A mudroom needs a place to sit to put on or remove your shoes. Consider getting seating with storage underneath for shoes or boots.
A large sink- If space allows, having a sink in your mudroom is great for cleaning dirty shoes and washing your hands.
Washable rug- This space gets dirty, so any rugs placed here should be easy to wash.
Hooks- Add a few hooks for wet coats and easy organization. The mudroom is a great place for outerwear you might grab on the way out the door. 
Durable flooring- Choose rugged, waterproof flooring that withstands moisture, dirt and heavy traffic. The District Floor Depot team can help you choose the perfect floor for your ideal mudroom.
Lighting and ventilation- Be sure to include lighting for visibility, especially during darker months. Since a mudroom is a high-moisture environment, incorporate ventilation such as a small window to prevent odors and promote air circulation.
Practical surface- If possible, include surfaces that are easy to clean, such as a countertop or designated area for wiping down muddy shoes.
