This is bathroom with a few step by step hints on installing a wetroom.
View attachment 23379This bathroom had a concrete floor and customer didn't want a pumped shower drain so had to be raised onto a plinth. Bath was also getting boxed in so was quite easy to incorporate both together. Impey tray was supported on all edges with cross members fitted every 300mm.
View attachment 23380View attachment 23381The partition wall between wet area and bath was made using 3x2 cls with wedi board fitted to framework. The curve in the wall was taken from a template made from the the curve in the bath to be installed.
View attachment 23382View attachment 23383The all wet area was first primed then tanked out with a Ardex tanking kit, The best one on the market in my opinion.
Impeys tile safe membrane corner tape was used around all edges in wet area then tiled on all internal walls.
Floor was then sealed with tilesafe membrane roll with 100w p/m2 underfloor heating finally tiled with natural stone mosaics.
The rest of the bathroom was tiled, floor was tanked and underfloor heating was fitted to the rest of the floor then tilemaster flex self level was used to encapsulate ufh and finally primed then tiled.
Wall and floor tiling was worked out to allow grout joint to run down the walls along the floor and up the tiled bath panel and wc was moved 160mm from wall to allow grout line on floor to line up with center of pan.
Also wetroom size was worked out to allow full size mosaics to be fitted wall to wall and to run up the side of the curved wall and step in wetroom was tiled for grout lines to match when looked at from above.
recesses with waterproof led lighting and a waterproof tv were installed in stud wall and under bath worktop shelf to for additional storage space.
Led strip lighting was fitted around mirror and an aqualiza digital bath shower mixer was used to eliminate shower valve and bath taps.
This post must seem a bit long winded but having designed this room, fitted it single handed in just under 3 weeks and won Job of the month on the tilers forum I am really pleased with the outcome and got a bit carried away with this post. Hope you enjoy.
