Falls formed carefully
We shape the shower floor to guide water towards the selected drain.
Vulnerable areas tanked
Waterproofing protects the structure beneath exposed wet room surfaces.
Splash control planned
Screens and fixture positions help contain water without closing the room in.
Open showering needs hidden work done properly
A wet room removes the usual raised shower enclosure, but the simple appearance depends on careful work below the finished surface. We assess the floor structure and available depth before setting the waste position and forming the required fall towards the drain. Vulnerable surfaces are tanked, then completed with suitable water-resistant wall and floor finishes. The layout must control splashes without making the room awkward to use. When planning a wet room installation in Scunthorpe, we also consider ventilation, access and whether a partial screen would keep nearby fittings and doorways drier.
Drainage and layout planned together
The existing room determines which wet room arrangement is practical. Floor construction can affect how the drain and gradient are formed, while toilet and basin positions influence circulation space. You may prefer an open shower area, a fixed screen or a more contained layout. Wall panels or tiles can protect the splash zone, and the selected floor needs to provide suitable footing while directing water correctly. We coordinate the waterproofing, plumbing and finishes as one job. Before handover, we check drainage flow, seals and fitted controls so water travels where the plan says it should.
Frequently asked questions
Can any bathroom become a wet room?
Not automatically. We need to assess floor depth, structure, waste routes, ventilation and usable space. These details show whether a suitable gradient and waterproofed layout can be formed.
Do wet rooms always need a shower screen?
No, but a fixed or partial screen may control splashes around doors, toilets or basins. We consider the room dimensions, shower position and how you expect to use the space before planning one.
How do you protect the floor from leaks?
We prepare and tank the vulnerable surfaces, form suitable falls and seal the required junctions before completing the finish. Drainage and seals are then checked as part of the installation.
