Wet rooms are stylish, minimalist, and easily accessible. They can make your bathroom look bigger and improve its functionality. No wonder several homeowners are finding this design appealing and worth the investment.
In this post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Tyler shares more information about wet rooms and why you should consider them for your next bathroom remodel.
What Are Wet Rooms?
Wet rooms are open-spaced bathrooms. Often, the shower area has no separation or enclosure from the entire bathroom. Instead, it uses glass partitions to limit water splashes. Wet rooms improve foot traffic and reduce visual clutter, making bathrooms look larger, easier to clean, and more accessible for older adults.
Why Homeowners Love Wet Rooms
A good bathroom is stylish, efficient, and functional. Wet rooms achieve this in the following ways:
Easy Cleaning
Wet rooms make cleaning and maintenance easier because of their small size and often minimalist space. Their design also allows water to direct to a single drain to prevent pooling.
Open-Space Design
A wet room is a minimalist-style bathroom. Its open-space design makes it look larger and allows more options for the tiles and walls. You can easily achieve a relaxing atmosphere with this kind of bathroom renovation.
Increased Property Value
Adding a bathroom can increase your property’s value. If you want an eye-catching and functional bathing area, we suggest adding wet rooms to make your home more appealing to potential buyers.
Clever Use of Space
Wet rooms often have space-efficient designs. Remodelers achieve this by knocking down some walls and creating an effective layout. You can also remove your old shower enclosure and bathtub to create more space.
Is a Wet Room Right for You?
Wet rooms look sophisticated, but it doesn’t mean everyone will love them. These bathrooms can be slippery because water goes everywhere. Prevent accidents and make the space more accessible to older adults and people with limited mobility, add safety features such as slip-resistant tile flooring and grab bars. Your contractor must also ensure proper drainage to prevent pooling in the wet room. Be sure to regularly clean the drain so that dirt buildup won’t affect the efficiency of the drainage.
