Kevin arrived promptly at the time we agreed. I simply cannot fault him at all, he was extremely polite, friendly and very meticulous towards his work.

Thankyou Kevin.... you were a joy to meet and many thanks for all the work you carried out.. Definitely a 5 star rating from me.

Lee - he’s a top guy who knows his stuff. Problem was diagnosed quickly and resolved immediately - no fuss! Price was fair. Would recommend without hesitation.
David
Shah was so reliable, experienced and polite. He made suggestions that helped us without pressuring us into anything or imposing on us. The work was all carried out as agreed quickly and he worked long days to get it all done. The changes we made were added onto our bill at the end and were far lower than I had been expecting. We’ll definitely have Shah back for the next phase of our renovation when we’re ready!

Cost of wet room installation
The cost of a wet room installation depends on several factors, including the size of the room, materials used, and the complexity of the design. On average, the cost ranges from £5,000 to £10,000 for a professionally installed wet room. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the costs:
- Preparation and Waterproofing: Proper waterproofing is essential for any wet room. Tanking the space (applying a waterproof membrane) can cost between £1,000 and £2,000, depending on the size of the room.
- Tiling: Floor and wall tiles are key to the look and function of a wet room. Depending on your choice of tiles, costs can range from £25 to £100 per square metre, plus charges for a tiler to install it.
- Plumbing: You will need a plumber to install drainage, pipework, and fixtures, which can add £1,000 to £3,000, depending on the complexity of the project.
- Additional Features: Custom features such as underfloor heating, high-end fittings, or luxury finishes will increase the overall cost.
Advantages and disadvantages of a wet room
Advantages:
- Space-Saving: Wet rooms create an open, spacious feel by eliminating the need for a shower cubicle or bath.
- Easy to Clean: With fewer fixtures and no shower enclosure, wet rooms are easier to clean and maintain.
- Accessibility: Wet rooms are ideal for those with mobility issues as they offer barrier-free access to the shower area.
Disadvantages:
- Cost: Wet room installations can be more expensive than standard bathrooms due to the need for waterproofing and specialist installation.
- Water Control: Poor design can lead to water pooling outside the shower area, so proper drainage and sloping are crucial.
How long does it take to install a wet room?
A standard wet room installation typically takes between 7 to 10 days, depending on the complexity of the project. The timeline includes preparation work like waterproofing, tiling, plumbing, and installing fixtures. Larger or more intricate designs may require additional time for completion.
Other wet room FAQs
Do I need planning permission for a wet room?
Planning permission is not usually required unless you are making structural changes or altering the drainage system in listed buildings or conservation areas.
Does a wet room need to be on the ground floor?
No, wet rooms can be installed on any floor, as long as proper waterproofing and drainage systems are in place to prevent leaks.
Do wet rooms get mouldy?
If properly waterproofed and ventilated, wet rooms should not have issues with mould.

I cannot recommend this company highly enough. Tudor & Darius did a brilliant job re-decorating my 2 bed flat, moving furniture around as needed without any fuss. They work quickly and meticulously neatly & cleanly. Tudor gave good advice on what type of paint to use on my woodwork, I didn't want it to look too shiny so chose eggshell. Whilst here they also sanded and re-hung my front door to prevent it from sticking. I would definitely use them again.
