I'm told LVT is suitable for bathrooms and kitchens, but wondering if it could cope with my family. Suppose someone gets out of the bath/shower and leaves puddles on the floor, that they don't mop up. On a sheet vinyl floor the puddle will just dry up in the air over a few hours. But on LVT, what if the puddle is over a joint? Will the water seep through and damage the LVT and subfloor?
