Why a wet room?
Advantages:
- A wet room is super-stylish and perfect for creating a contemporary look.
-As a second bathroom, a wet room can easily increase the value of your home.
-Great for small bathrooms - removing the bath creates loads more space.
-Wet rooms are, in general, easier to clean ? no shower screen or tray to worry about and if you go for a wall-hung sink and toilet, it's easier still.
-If it's done properly, your floor (the bit under the tiles) is better protected than it would be in a standard bathroom.
Wet room installations are becoming more and more popular. They are stylish, easy to maintain, great to use and look fabulous.
However wet room installation is a specialist installation and should only be completed by professionals.
Essentially a wet room is a waterproof room with a shower enclosure in it. A gently sloped floor ensures all the water goes into a drain. Get in wrong and your wet room becomes a wet house.
