What Is A Wet Room?

Simply put, a wet room is an open bathroom that has no clear distinction between the shower space and the rest of the room. There are many ways interior decorators can accomplish this. Styling options include:

Having no separation at all between the shower and the wider floor.
Using a half or full glass door for the shower, but extending the same flooring throughout the entire room.
Taking out the bathtub completely and replacing it with a shower faucet.
Modifying your hand-held shower over the tub while ensuring the room feels unbroken and open.
Removing your shower tray and retiling the whole floor using uniform slabs.

A wet room is defined as a waterproof, open space in which there are no steps, trays, or raised areas. By using floor space efficiently, it can make your bathroom feel more luxurious and spa-like. As a result, you can increase the value of your home by adding a wet room.

What’s The Difference Between A Wet Room And A Regular Bathroom?

Think of a ‘group shower scene’ in any movie, whether it’s a gym or a locker room. That wide-open feel where everyone sees everyone else. Now try imagining that set-up in your own house. But instead of loud, buff, curvy people in towels, it’s just you. That’s your wet room.

The shower usually isn’t separated from the rest of the bathroom.
There might be a tub, but more often, you just have a shower.
There’s no shower tray or shower door, but you might have a partial glass partition.
The ‘shower floor’ slopes towards the drain to avoid flooding the rest of the room.
There’s no step to climb over – the floor continues uninterrupted.
The entire room is waterproof, from floor to ceiling.
The shape of your wet room can be irregular – it’s not just plain rectangles.

Wet Rooms Installation: Factors To Consider

Getting wet is not hard to do. And plumbers will sell you on how quick and easy the process is. Start your research on YouTube and you’ll be rushing to the store or ordering that online wet room kit within seconds. But here are some things you should focus on.

While a wet room can be installed on upper floors, your water volumes will rise, so check your home’s drainage to see if it can handle the excess water.
This may involve inspecting and clearing your drains and gutters.
The vast majority of wet rooms are made up of wide open spaces so opt for space-saving fixtures like hidden piping and recessed shower heads built into the ceiling.
Wet room design is generally minimalist, so you may veer towards chromes and metallics that do well with steamy sauna-like bathroom spaces.
Installing recessed lighting behind your wall and floor panels can provide you with extra luxury.
That wide-open look means you’ll probably eliminate drawers, vanities, and cabinets, so you have to install recessed shelves for your bathroom items.
Getting rid of all bath linens may be important, too, as they easily become wet and might promote mold and mildew.
While you do want a floor gradient, it needs to be subtle. Otherwise, it may disorient you, especially for kids and older residents.
Choosing the right tile or stone for the bathroom will give you a warranty that will last quite a long time and keep it from slipping.
It is okay that your wet room is open and free, but think about installing handgrips and grab bars. In a steamy, glossy bath, it can be comforting to have something to hold on to.

Should you install a wet room? Yes, if you want to. As you can see, it’s not as complex as it seems. A seamless, continuous floor sloped toward the drain should be used. Remove all partitions to give the room an open feel, but consider partial glass doors for anti-splashing and cleanliness.

Consider using ready-made wet room kits or hiring professional, licensed plumbers to ensure that all surfaces are coated with waterproof layers before the surface tile is installed.
