Wet Room Conversion in Stone
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 Stone 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.
Plenty of the bathroom fitting we quote across Stone starts the same way: a house that's outgrown its original bathroom layout.
Wet Room Conversion FAQs — Stone
- Can any Stone 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 Stone conversion.
- Is a screen ever fitted?
- Optional — a fixed glass panel keeps spray off the WC on many Stone 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 Stone?
- £7,500–£13,500 typically for a full conversion including formed floor, tanking, linear drain, tile, WC and vanity. Fixed after survey.
- Do you tidy up at the end of each day?
- Yes — dust sheets stay down, the room is hoovered daily and we leave your Stone home liveable while the work runs.
- Do you provide a fixed-price quote before starting?
- Always. After a free home visit in Stone we send a fully itemised, fixed-price quotation — no surprises on invoice day.
Where {town} wet rooms fail
Homeowners converting a bathroom into a fully tanked wet room in Stone hit a recurring set of issues with wet room conversion:
Wet rooms 'tanked' with paint-only systems and no primer — flagged regularly on Stone jobs.
Trays hidden under tile instead of a properly formed floor — flagged regularly on Stone jobs.
Linear drains sunk with mortar 'falls' instead of pre-fall boards — flagged regularly on Stone jobs.
In Stone we regularly find old cast-iron waste runs that throttle drainage on a new shower.
Stone: concrete sub-floors hiding rotten timber boards near the wc.
