Wet Room Installation
A wet room gives you a level-access shower space with a clean, modern finish and easy day to day use. This service covers the full plumbing and drainage installation for a properly waterproofed wet room, designed to manage water safely and avoid leaks into floors and adjoining rooms.
More information
What wet room installation includes
A wet room needs more than good tiling. The key is correct waterproofing, reliable drainage and well planned pipework so the room performs for years.

- Full tanking system to protect walls and floor in the wet area
- Second fix plumbing and connection of shower, basin, WC and other fittings
- Pressure and waste testing, checks for flow and leaks

Who this service suits
- Homeowners who want a level-access shower or a more open bathroom layout
- Landlords upgrading for durability, straightforward cleaning and tenant appeal
- Small commercial spaces that need a robust, easy-to-maintain wash area
- Anyone dealing with a leaking shower tray, failed seals or recurring water damage
How the work is delivered
Work is typically completed in stages to keep the build controlled and compliant. First, the layout and drainage route are confirmed so the waste can achieve the right fall and the shower area can drain quickly. Next comes first fix plumbing, tanking and floor preparation, followed by second fix connections once surfaces and finishes are ready.
Timing depends on the room size, the subfloor, and whether the project is part of a wider bathroom refurbishment. You will get a clear plan of what happens when, and what other trades need to do before the next plumbing stage.
After installation
Before sign-off, all water and waste systems are tested and the wet room is checked for proper drainage and accessible isolation points. You will also get practical advice on looking after the room, what to monitor, and when to re-seal or maintain fittings to keep everything watertight.
