Wet rooms are the fastest-growing request we get in Hamilton and Airdrie, partly for the look and partly for step-free access. They are also the least forgiving bathroom to get wrong.
What a wet room costs locally
A wet room in Hamilton or Airdrie typically starts around £9,000 and runs to £14,000 for a larger room with underfloor heating and premium fittings. The extra over a standard bathroom is tanking, floor build-up and drainage.
We compare the options in wet room vs shower enclosure.
Tanking and drainage done properly
The whole room is waterproofed before a single tile goes on: primer, waterproof membrane, sealed corners and taped joints, with the floor graded to a linear or centre drain.
On a suspended timber floor the joists are notched and levelled to create that fall. That work is invisible when finished and is exactly where cheap quotes cut corners.
Accessibility and resale
Step-free access, a fold-down seat and grab rails make a wet room work long-term for older family members, and it stays a modern-looking room rather than a clinical one.
