What is a Wet room?
Wet Rooms are waterproofed bathroom rooms typically equipped with a walk in shower. The wet room itself becomes the shower enclosure, with a shower drain inset into a gently sloped floor in place of a usual shower base. This means that wet rooms have to be fully waterproofed to prevent leaks so this may not be a DIY install. It would be best to have a professional company like Beautiful-baths to do the job for peace of mind and a warranty.
Wet rooms are very practical for people with mobility issues as they eliminate the need to step up into a shower cubicle and over a sometimes steep threshold. They are also considered to be very stylish and so if you want to create a cool, modern look in your bathroom, they could be a good option to consider because there are plenty of design options available.
Another reason wet rooms are popular is because they can help you to save space if you only have a small bathroom. They mean that you don’t need to have a shower cubicle, which can constrict movement in a small room, and you don’t need a bathtub if you don’t want to. Wet room can also be handy for bathing pets which some home owners with dogs like.
