5 Benefits of Adding a Wet Room to Your Home

Many people take pride in crafting their bathroom into a safe haven where they can unwind and wash off the stress of the day.

Adding a wet room to your home is one way to do this - the stylish design and rich tiles emulates a luxury spa experience, making you feel pampered and looked after in your own home.

We have compiled a list of the top five benefits a wet room can provide and how they can elevate your showering experience.

1. Aesthetic Value

It’s undeniable that wet rooms can add a wow factor to any property. Wall to ceiling tiling, minimalist fixtures and an open plan design oozes simplicity and luxury.

With fewer obstructions like shower trays and fixed cubicles, wetrooms create a more spacious look and allow you to take your bathroom design in a new direction.

Consider using wood and low ambient light to create a seamless spa design, or use steel and glass for a sleek, modern feel.

2. Easy to Clean

Wetrooms are designed with a sloping floor that guides any water towards a waste or drain, which means that you no longer have to worry about water escaping while you wash. It also means that you won’t have to clean in between obstacles like shower enclosures, which are notorious for collecting dirt.

3. Accessibility

Wetrooms are particularly useful for those with limited movement, as they do not require you to step up into a shower tray. They are all one level, allowing you to glide into the shower with minimal effort.

When fitted with non-slip tiles, wetrooms are a safe option for all ages.

4. Increase the Value of Your Property

A wetroom can increase the attractiveness of your home to potential buyers. It is known that luxury homes go up in value if they have a wet room, because not only do they have a luxurious feel, but they also appeal to a wider range of buyers, including the elderly and those with mobility problems. 

5. Wetrooms Last Longer

Wetrooms have waterproofing systems fitted under the tiles, which means that a correctly installed wetroom is extremely resistant to moisture and leaks. This requires less maintenance than a normal bathroom and stays looking newer for longer.
