View all blogs

Post by Wetroom Materials

When it comes to designing a wet room, there are many details to consider.  Not only is it essential to specify the right system to meet your requirement; it is of utmost importance to ensure the wet room is installed to the highest standard. Bad news is that wet rooms cannot be easily repaired, great news is that if installed correctly, a fully waterproofed wet room will last longer than the life of your average bathroom.

Why should you hire a professional to install your Wetroom?

It is worth investing in the installation process and hiring a wet room specialist to carry out the installation. This can save cost down the line and ensure the room is built to last.

As wetrooms are becoming increasingly popular, builders are becoming more familiar with the level of preparation required. However, due to the complexities of installation, many contractors remain reluctant to perform this task. Ensuring your wetroom project is installed by a wet room expert is the only way to ensure lasting results.
