Default Bathroom Granite Floor

I am thinking of having Granite tile installed around my tub and in the shower. I am also thinking of using the same Polished Tile on my Bathroom floor. What are the disadvantages of using this tile on my floor, if any. Thanks

Other than being a bit slick when wet and cold without flooring heat, I know of no other hold back as long as it is properly installed and sealed from moisture. It is used commonly in new homes. Be sure to use blue board or other moisture resistant back mounting material inside the shower area.

Enjoy
