Practical considerations
Worth Knowing Before You Start
Floor construction
Timber and concrete floors are prepared differently. We check what’s possible for level access in your room.
Waterproofing
A wet room needs the correct waterproofing system across floors and walls, not just in the shower area.
Splash and screens
Screen size and position affect how much of the room gets wet — we’ll talk through practical options.
FAQ
Questions About This Service
Can any bathroom become a wet room?
Many can, but it depends on the floor structure and drainage route. We assess this before recommending an approach.
What is the difference between a wet room and a walk-in shower?
A wet room is fully waterproofed with the shower open to the room; a walk-in shower typically uses a low tray and screen in a defined area.
Are wet rooms suitable for accessibility needs?
Level-access showers can make a bathroom easier to use. Tell us about any specific needs in your enquiry.
