Done wrong, it's the most expensive leak in the house, which is why ours start with the floor build-up, not the brochure.

What you get

Wet room installation in Manchester: what the price includes

  • 01
    Full tanking system

    Waterproof membrane across floor and walls, warrantied as a system, not paint-on hope.

  • 02
    Correct falls

    Floor screeded or formed to drain to the gully without ponding, the detail that separates wet rooms from wet floors.

  • 03
    Level-access options

    True level access for accessibility needs, with flow rates matched so the gully keeps up with the shower.

  • 04
    Underfloor heating ready

    Electric UFH under tiles integrated with the tanking, dry floors within minutes of showering.

  • 05
    Falls set before anything is tiled

    A wet room drains on gradient alone, so the fall towards the gully is formed in the screed or the sloped former and checked with a level before a single tile goes down. Get it wrong and no amount of sealant fixes it, the water simply sits where the floor is flattest.

What this means in Greater Manchester

Local conditions we work around

Wet rooms sit well with Manchester's soft water, no scale on the screen, the gully or the valve, so the finish stays looking new far longer than it would in the south. The build question here is the floor. Terrace and mill-conversion floors are frequently timber with more deflection than a wet room tolerates, so the survey checks joist span and load before anything is promised, because movement is what cracks tanking and turns a wet room into a very expensive ceiling repair downstairs.

Straight answers

Wet room installation in Manchester, your questions

Are wet rooms suitable upstairs?
Yes, with proper tanking and a formed tray system, timber floors need the load and deflection checked, which the survey covers. Most of our Manchester installs are on first floors.
Cost compared with a normal bathroom?
Roughly £900–£1,500 more than the equivalent bathroom, mostly tanking and floor formation. From £4,100 installation for a typical conversion.
Will it add value?
A well-built wet room usually helps, particularly for accessibility. A badly built one is a survey red flag, the tanking certificate we hand over exists exactly for that moment.
Will a wet room devalue my property?
A well-built one does the opposite, particularly in a flat with only one bathroom. What hurts value is a wet room that leaks or feels like an afterthought, which is a build quality question, not a concept question.
Can I have a wet room upstairs?
Yes, and most of ours are. A suspended timber floor needs the joists checked and usually a recessed former between them, and the tanking has to be continuous up the walls. It is a bigger job than a ground floor but a routine one.
How do you stop the whole room getting wet?
A linear drain in the right place, a proper fall, and a glass screen. Done properly the water goes where it is meant to and the far side of the room stays dry enough to keep a towel on the rail.
Does Manchester water affect what you would fit?
Helpfully, yes. Water this soft means fittings last, showers do not fur up and a cylinder installed here will outlive the same unit in London, so nobody needs a softener. The complication is the buildings: mill and warehouse conversions run long retrofitted waste routes, and the byelaw terraces share rear drainage where responsibility is genuinely ambiguous.
