You need to be careful when doing that especially if you are having parquet flooring outside the bathroom. The water may damage the flooring... smile.gif
So, just have enough of water to test for leakage and not cause damages... tongue.gif

If you pond the water too high in the bathroom & it happen that the water proofing is not good at the kerb between the bathroom & bedroom, the water could seep to the parquet & end of parquet...

if its a new house still under warranty who cares? just file complaint to developer. Dont think new houses having parquet anymore. If you talking about 2nd houses, usually seldom ppl check waterproofing as new owner will renovate the house.
