FAQs
What is a wet room?
A wet room is a fully waterproof bathroom where the shower area is level with the rest of the room, creating an open-plan space. The entire room functions as a shower enclosure, with water draining away via a central drain.
Wet rooms are popular for their sleek, modern design and ease of access – making them suitable for bathrooms of all sizes.
What do I need to create a wet room?
To create a wet room, you’ll need the following components:
- Shower – A wet room typically includes a wall-mounted shower head, which can be fixed or handheld, depending on your preference.
- Wet room tray – This pre-formed base sits under the tiles to ensure proper drainage and a level floor.
- Shower tray former – A type of padding that sits beneath the shower tray, tiles, and flooring in your wet room to create a sloping surface for water to drain efficiently.
- Shower waste – This drainage system is typically installed at the lowest point of the wet room to ensure water is removed efficiently.
- Waterproofing – A coating applied to the floors and walls to prevent water from leaking into other areas of the home.
- Wet room panels – These panels cover the walls and floor, providing a smooth, waterproof surface that’s easy to clean and maintain.
- Shower screen – While wet rooms are generally open, you may choose to add a glass screen to contain splashes and separate the shower area from the rest of the bathroom.
How much does a wet room cost?
The price of a wet room can vary significantly depending on the size of the room, the materials you choose to use, and the complexity of the design.
Customisations like luxury tiles, high-end fittings – including shower heads and valves – and underfloor heating can increase the overall cost.
