Wet Room Installation in Gamlingay
A level-access wet room is a popular request among Gamlingay's older bungalows and family homes. Wet rooms have gone from a luxury feature to one of the most requested bathroom upgrades. The appeal is obvious — a clean, open shower space with no tray or curtain, easy to clean, and a look that makes even a small bathroom feel twice the size. They're also the most practical solution for anyone with mobility concerns, removing the step-over that makes a traditional shower or bath difficult.
The properties across Gamlingay suit wet rooms in different ways. The older homes in Everton and the town centre often have ground-floor bathrooms with solid floors — ideal for cutting a gradient and installing a linear drain. The newer builds on The Cinques work well for en-suite wet rooms, where the compact space benefits from the open design. We also fit wet rooms in loft conversions, extensions, and garage conversions where the bathroom is being built from scratch.
Tanking matters most in the village's older solid-floor cottages, where the original build leaves little room for error. The difference between a wet room that works and one that causes problems comes down to the tanking. We use a full liquid membrane system that waterproofs the entire floor and walls to at least 1.2 metres. Every corner joint, pipe penetration, and floor-to-wall junction gets sealed with reinforcing tape and additional membrane coats. We don't cut corners on this — a properly tanked wet room is as watertight as a swimming pool.
