Over the last two decades wet room designs have become very popular and have gone on to replace the traditional plastic tray and cubicle style of bathrooms. Wetrooms give you the scope to achieve a modern, sleek and clean finish. You can create a beautifully tiled floor without the need for a shower tray, enabling a seamless open plan look to your bathroom. We offer a wide range of wetroom kits and wetroom systems for you to choose from and to design the room that best suits your home.

A water trap is used all bathroom products from baths and shower trays to sinks and toilets. The majority of these items will use a U bend / P Trap, which holds water in the pipe. The water prevents odours / gasses from travelling through the pipe and into the bathroom. As wet rooms are typically level access, this needs to be incorporated into the floor, where there is not a huge amount of space to install a U bend / P Trap. To deal with this, most outlets use removable traps which will hold 50mm of water or will have a mechanical spring trap which prevents / blocks odours.

A Guide To Designing And Styling A Small Wetroom
21st May 2021
My client bought a range of Wet Room Unislope Systems from our local retailer, Bathworks. We struggled to find anyone to come to site and take responsibility for the waterproofing until we came across WM | Wetroom Materials. They were willing to stand over their tanking system and more than helpful throughout all stages of the installation from site survey and room preparation to installation. A 10 Year no leak fully insured warranty gave me the confidence that we were dealing with a professional organisation. I would highly recommend these guys and will certainly be using them going forward.

I have honestly found, WM | Wetroom Materials to be an easy and reliable company to work with. Whether it be a one wet room residential project, apartment block or a gym; they ensure there are no installation problems and we don’t have to worry about leaks. They take care of the specification and advising us on correct build ups and preparation. On a recent project we were able to buy their Unislope System from our bathroom show room retailer and they subsequently came to site to tank out the bathrooms. It was a time sensitive job and The Wet Room lads worked through the evening and into the weekend to ensure we completed the project on time. I have no hesitation in recommending WM, they are a pleasure to deal with.

In Bright Designs, we understand the importance of specifying a reliable waterproofing system for bathrooms. We have worked on a number of projects with WM | Wetroom Materials over the years and I can honestly say that their waterproofing installation service offers complete peace of mind for us and our clients. The WM Team are there throughout all stages of the project from site survey and specification to installation. More importantly they also give us a 10 year no leak guarantee. I also like the fact that they will handle communication with the client and contractors in terms of delivering a high-quality installation which allows me the head space to focus on other aspects of the build."
