I have deep charcoal in the master. does it tequre attention? yes. not a big deal.

Thanks Oliviag, very help. When you say it requires more attention do you mean more frequent cleaning.

Thanks Jacqui!! The bathroom looks great!

I don't think black tile in a bathroom is a big deal. In a living room or kitchen? Yes, but the bathroom doesn't get the traffic the other rooms get.

I had a black tile floor in my bathroom in my last house and it was fine.

Idk sizes of the tiles, but that photo looks bit busy with grout lines...

Everdebz, the grout will be the same color as the tile its next too. The pic is just a guide.

If you have blonde or gray hair it might be a problem!

Or have a blonde or white dog!

I have gray, almost white hair and two dogs; one blonde and the other Merle’s with white. None of this is an issue in our bathrooms with dark floors. The dogs are rarely in the bathroom and I lose most of my hair in the shower. We also have dark tile in the kitchen. Not a problem.

I have dark hair and so does my hubby... maybe a few white hairs here and there... our dog is grey, not a shedder, and wouldn’t be hanging in the bathroom.

Darker floors can show everything, but it's not a big deal. We have brazilian cherry hardwood throughout. Our master shower floor is a dark tile, a charcoal porcelain slate-look tile. Not a big deal.

Plus, if it's a master bath it'll see adult-only use.

Just have a swiffer type of thing in the closet.

In my opinion, it’s the SHINY dark or black tile that is such a hassle and shows everything. I have dark charcoal matte tiles (with matching charcoal grout) in my large foyer, a long hallway, and much used powder room (seven people in our family) and it’s been a dream to take care of! Sometimes I’m really surprised at how much crap was on my floors when I sweep them. LOL! (Actually, it’s my opinion that shiny flooring of any type or color is a nightmare for trying to keep looking clean even after you just cleaned it. I despise shiny flooring.)

Well this is an old thread now, but I hope that you went with the black tile despite those “hard to clean” warnings. I really don’t know where the notion that black stuff is harder to clean comes from- I’ve heard it before as well, but have still chosen to have multiple homes with black countertops, and I’m about to put down some black floor tile in my bathroom. I’ve never felt that black requires additional maintenance; in fact, in my experience, it’s actually white that shows everything, and people seem to have no hesitancy choosing that.
