Stylish, Space-Saving, and Modern: Wet Room Installations by West London Plumbers
Wet rooms have quickly become one of the most fashionable and functional additions to modern homes. Not only do they elevate the aesthetic of your bathroom, but they also offer a smart and efficient solution for small spaces. As more homeowners opt for this contemporary bathroom style, understanding what a wet room is—and how it’s installed—has never been more important.
What is a Wet Room?
A wet room is a fully waterproofed (or tanked) bathroom where the shower is open and flush with the floor, creating a sleek, seamless space without the need for an enclosed shower tray. The entire floor is designed to slope gently toward a drain, allowing water to flow away effortlessly. It’s a smart solution that combines space-saving practicality with easy maintenance and modern design.
Who Can Install a Wet Room?
Anyone can enjoy the benefits of a wet room! Whether you have a compact ensuite or a spacious master bathroom, a wet room can be tailored to your space. In smaller bathrooms, a glass shower screen is often added to prevent water splashing outside the shower area, offering the best of both form and function.

Key Elements of a Wet Room Installation
1. Waterproofing (Tanking)
This is the most crucial part of a wet room. The floor, walls, and especially the shower area are primed and sealed with a waterproof membrane to prevent water leakage. Once cured, the area is tiled for a clean, polished finish. Our team also recommends slightly raising the bathroom door threshold (around 5mm) to help contain water within the room in case of overrun.
2. Drainage System
A floor-level drain is installed, and the floor is subtly sloped toward it to ensure proper water flow. Depending on the bathroom structure, we may use a sloping shower former or a tiled subfloor made from specialist plywood to create the gradient.
