Wet Rooms and Shower trays
The real truth TBC

Wet room showers have developed a bad reputation due to horror stories of water damage and drainage issues, but these problems stem entirely from poor workmanship, not the concept itself.
When executed correctly, a wet room is a high-end feature that requires meticulous planning, precision installation, and expert craftsmanship.
The foundation of a wet room begins with a carefully installed floor former, which ensures the correct gradient for efficient water drainage. Achieving a seamless look requires tile enveloping—precision cutting of tiles to follow the contours of the gradient—preventing awkward transitions or unsightly steps.
To maintain a premium aesthetic, exposed tile edges are machine-polished to create a smooth, factory-finished look. One of the most crucial elements is ensuring the entire floor is perfectly level outside the wet zone, allowing the shower screen to sit flush without gaps or instability. This level of detail and craftsmanship is what sets a high-quality wet room apart from a poorly executed one, and it’s why they come at a premium cost.
Done right, a wet room is not just a shower — it’s an elegant, spa-like experience built to last.
