Im currently in the process of renovating my 1st floor shower room and looking to create a bit of a wetroom.
First floor wet room.
Wet rooms are admired by consumers for their practicality and convenience and are fast becoming a popular alternative to a regular bathroom.
Wet room flooring types.
If a step up or down is required it is best to have one 10cm step or higher instead of multiple steps measuring between 3 and 4cm which could pose a trip hazard.
A common query that people have when it comes to building a wet room is whether or not it can be built on the first floor.
All walls in the immediate shower area should be tanked floor to ceiling.
These rooms are generally completely tiled and water is handled through a drainage system that serves the entire space.
Installing a wet room on a first floor.
If the floor level of the wet room cannot match the room it is entered from consider what sort of a join will be used and how this works practically.
I ve researched this to death and pretty clear on what i need to do but looking for advice on the correct.
When it comes to wet rooms and walk in showers one of the biggest considerations is the material that the floor will be finished with the choice of flooring finish will largely dictate the type of under tray wet room tray that can be used with the chosen flooring type.
In this way any water that seeps through the tiling will be contained by the waterproofing.
