Before and After – Wet Rooms
July 11, 2019

To start a “wet room” is a bathroom that is designed to maximize space in small rooms by creating wet areas in the bathroom that are traditionally dry.  It is by far one of the most difficult renovations to create and get right as you need a high degree of planning and experience to make all elements work in a way that drains well and fits in the right positions.

Below are all the renovations we have completed that hopefully help during your selection and design process.

The nib wall set up for a wet room is great way to get rid of any spacing issues. It does require a custom made screen though that will add to the cost but is a great added shelf.

Windows can impact a space, especially when that window is old and cream. By changing the focal point of the room to blend with all your other bathrooms wow factors can be crucial.
