Penny floor for the understairs bathroom
Anyone fitted a penny floor? We're thinking of putting a small one in our bathroom but have my reservations as to durability and longevity.

I always think the downstairs loo is somewhere that you can afford to do something a little different and quirky. Having watched the full video, I do not think cleaning or maintenance would be an issue (and I am a total clean freak), the floor has a fairly substantial coat of resin over it, so there are no gaps or nooks and crannies for dirt to build up. I would imagine you would just mop it as with any hard floor?....maybe followed by a buff up to get rid of any smears, but in a small room that should not be too laborious. Please do post photos if you decide to go with it. Good luck :-)

Technically, if the copper is sealed and no air gets to them then they shouldn’t oxidise and discolour.
What might make them discolour is the resin that goes on top reacting with the copper. So you could possibly seal them first with something suitable to protect the copper finish before adding the resin

I love a bit of ‘different’ decorating and it will definitely be a talking point. Good luck
