Wet rooms - the essential guide

Want a wet room, but not sure whether it will work in your home? Read on for the advantages, disadvantages and expert advice

Advantages of a wet room

• A wet room is super-stylish and perfect for creating a contemporary look.

• As a second bathroom, a wet room can easily increase the value of your home.

• Great for small bathrooms - removing the bath creates loads more space.

• Wet rooms are, in general, easier to clean. There's no shower screen or tray to worry about and if you go for a wall-hung sink and toilet, it's easier still.

• If it's done properly, your floor (the bit under the tiles) is better protected than it would be in a standard bathroom.
