What we install

Properly installed wet rooms

A wet room installed without the right tanking and drainage will leak — causing serious damage that can be expensive to remedy. NorthHeat installs wet rooms correctly from the ground up, with full waterproof tanking membranes, properly gradient-screeded floors and quality drain installations.

The result is a beautiful, watertight shower room that drains quickly, stays clean easily and looks great for years. We install wet rooms for both modern aesthetic upgrades and accessible bathing adaptations for older or disabled users.

The benefits

Why choose a wet room?

Wet rooms have become increasingly popular for good reason — they offer a combination of style, practicality and accessibility that traditional shower enclosures can't match.

Accessibility

Zero-threshold entry is ideal for elderly users, those with limited mobility or wheelchair users. Can also accommodate fold-down seats and grab rails.

Contemporary style

Clean, open lines that make even smaller bathrooms feel larger. One of the most sought-after features in modern home design.

Easy to maintain

No shower tray to clean around, no frame tracks harbouring mould. A quick rinse-down keeps a wet room pristine.

Adds property value

A well-installed wet room is a genuine selling point that can increase your property's market value and appeal.

Flexible design

Drains can be positioned centrally or along a wall. Glass screens can be fixed or hinged. The layout adapts to your space.

Watertight guarantee

Our full tanking system means zero risk of water ingress behind tiles or into the floor structure below.

Common questions

Wet room FAQs

Most bathrooms can be converted, but there are a few factors to check first — the floor structure needs to support the screed weight, and there should be enough fall to drain to the outlet. We'll assess this at the survey stage and let you know what's possible.

A wet room installation typically takes 7–10 working days, slightly longer than a standard bathroom refurb due to the screeding and drying time required. The screed needs to cure fully before tiling can begin — we'll factor this into your schedule.

Both central and linear channel drains work well and both look great. Linear drains against a wall are popular for their contemporary appearance and give you more flexibility with tile layout. Central drains require the floor to slope from all four sides. We'll advise based on your room shape and your preferences.

Yes — wet rooms are often the best option for accessible bathing. The zero-threshold entry removes the trip hazard of a shower tray, and we can incorporate fold-down seats, grab rails positioned to the right height, and thermostatic valves set to a safe temperature. We have experience installing wet rooms specifically for accessibility requirements.

Not if it's fitted with the right heating. We always recommend a heated towel rail or bathroom radiator in wet rooms, and we can install underfloor heating beneath the screed for added warmth underfoot. Proper ventilation via an extractor fan also keeps the room feeling fresh and prevents condensation.
