Wet Room Conversion in Fenton
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
A wet room is a bathroom with no line between shower and floor — one waterproofed surface, one drain, no tray, no screen. In a Fenton property it usually goes into a smaller room where a shower-cubicle-plus-bath layout has always felt cramped.
We form the floor with pre-fall boards, tank the entire room with a sheet membrane, run the drain to a proper gravity waste, and finish in R11 tile. No corners cut on the waterproofing — the tanking is what stops a leak eating the ceiling below.
If you're weighing up bathroom fitting in Fenton, the local detail matters more than the brochure spec.

Where {town} wet rooms fail
Homeowners converting a bathroom into a fully tanked wet room in Fenton hit a recurring set of issues with wet room conversion:
Wet rooms 'tanked' with paint-only systems and no primer — flagged regularly on Fenton jobs.
Trays hidden under tile instead of a properly formed floor — flagged regularly on Fenton jobs.
Linear drains sunk with mortar 'falls' instead of pre-fall boards — flagged regularly on Fenton jobs.
Original lath-and-plaster walls that flex under modern tile weight. We see it often enough in Fenton to plan for it.
In Fenton we regularly find dated 1970s coloured suites that drag the whole room down.
About Fenton
Fenton sits in Staffordshire, served by Stoke-on-Trent City Council, with postcodes ST4. Fenton — the forgotten town — is a mix of tight terraces around the A50, ex-council semis at Mount Pleasant and pockets of new-build infill on cleared pottery land. Main routes through are A50 and A5007, which is why our vans pass close to Fenton most days.

Wet Room Conversion FAQs — Fenton
- Can any Fenton room become a wet room?
- Most can — timber floors need decoupling and often joist strengthening, concrete slabs are ideal. We survey the floor before quoting on any Fenton conversion.
- Is a screen ever fitted?
- Optional — a fixed glass panel keeps spray off the WC on many Fenton layouts. Full open wet rooms without a panel work best in rooms over 3m long.
- How long does a wet room conversion take?
- 10–14 working days end to end: strip, form, tank (with cure time), tile, second-fix. Slower than a bathroom refit because tanking has to cure properly.
- How much does a wet room cost in Fenton?
- £7,500–£13,500 typically for a full conversion including formed floor, tanking, linear drain, tile, WC and vanity. Fixed after survey.
- How long does a full bathroom in Fenton typically take?
- A standard family bathroom in Fenton is usually 7 – 12 working days from strip-out to handover, depending on tiling area and structural changes.
- Do you provide a fixed-price quote before starting?
- Always. After a free home visit in Fenton we send a fully itemised, fixed-price quotation — no surprises on invoice day.
