Wet room ideas to enhance your showering rituals

Wet rooms have soared in popularity in recent years, they have all the components of a normal bathroom, alike in every way; except everything is designed to get wet. With “tanked” floors and walls, meaning sealed with a waterproof membrane and usually designed with a sloping floor to guide water to the drain. Floor to ceiling tiles can create a chic look and the wet room lifestyle should appeal to everyone, being more accessible and easy to clean, maintain and more hygienic. Wet rooms actually improve the quality and value of your property, so they can be a good investment in the long run. Generally, a wet room consists of a walk-in shower separated by a glass screen and then a toilet and sink area, usually with wall and floor tiles. One of the main advantages of having a wet room is optimising your space, smaller bathrooms or rooms containing a separate shower could easily be converted into a wet room, which would naturally save space and open up the room.
