You can convert any size bathroom into a wet area. However, if you have a smaller bathroom, it is important to protect your towels, toiletries, and toilet paper from being sprayed. We recommend that you install a divider panel in a small bathroom. If you want to provide greater protection but still have the convenience of a wet area, then our large sliding shower doors are a good compromise.
Installing Wet Room Shower Tray
It is best to choose non-porous ceramic tiles or sheet vinyl when choosing tiles. Stone tiles such as granite and marble will need to be sealed every few months in order to remain waterproof. Underfloor heating is a great option. It not only makes the floor look amazing in winter but also allows for drying out after showering. Effective ventilation is essential for bathroom installation due to the high levels of moisture in the air. An extraction system that pulls moisture from the room and vents it outside should be your goal. Depending on the location of your bathroom, which type of bathroom ventilation fan do you need?
Laying Wet Room Floor
Like most home renovations there are some costs and labor time that can be easily cut if the area has not been prepared well in advance. This includes removing old flooring, whether it is wooden flooring or carpet tiles. Although this is something you can do by yourself, it will require a lot of time and effort. This should be something to keep in mind if you are trying to do it alone. If you are up to the challenge, this can be a great way of saving some money.

So long as your bathroom is redone from the flooring upwards and the installation is done by a professional, your wetroom will be able to function no matter what sort of house you live in. However, it is important to note that you’ll need a slanted shower drain to allow water to go down, and you’ll need to waterproof (tanking) the entire room. Choose the best materials for your budget – you really don’t want to cut corners, as this could lead to expensive repair costs later down the line.

Whilst work is being done turning your bathroom into a wet room, you will need a place to shower, go to the toilet and do everything else you normally do in the bathroom.

The installation of a wet room can take anywhere from 4 days to two weeks – this again depends on the size of the wetroom and the additional features you wish to implement.

What do you tile first in a bathroom?
Whilst you can tile either one first, popular opinion based on experience is that is is easier to tile the walls first and then the floor, if you are tiling both in a room. This ensures that you keep the floor tiles cleaner as you won't be doing so much work around them once they are installed.

Brass, copper, galvanised steel, cast iron and PVC and these can all play a part in your network of plumbing. In wetrooms, you are most likely to encounter brass or copper pipes. This type of wetroom pipe is likely to last between 50 and 70 years over their natural lifespan.
