Converting a Bathroom to a Wet Room
Supporting accessibility and independence with wet rooms for everyone.
Converting a Bathroom to an Accessible Wet Room
Choosing to convert your bathroom into a wet room is one of the best home improvements you can make to assist with daily life, support your health and enjoy your independence. Whether you are planning to future-proof your home or you’re helping a loved one with a bathroom adaptation, a G360 Bathrooms’ wet room will transform home life.
First of all, what is a wet room?
Our mobility wet rooms are one-level bathrooms fitted with waterproof flooring and open-plan designs to make moving around safer with fewer hazards and obstacles. A wet room can consist of a shower with a fold-down seat, an accessible toilet with options for wash-dry functions, or height-appropriate grab rails. A wet room can also have an assistive bath to help carers and users safely access bathing.
Why Convert Your Bathroom to a Wet Room?
For anyone who struggles with mobility, balance or getting in and out of a traditional bath or shower, converting a bathroom to a wet room can make everyday routines much easier.
Removing the shower tray or bath creates a level-access space that is easier to move around, particularly for wheelchair users and people who use mobility aids. It can also reduce common bathroom hazards, such as raised edges, slippery surfaces and difficult transfers.
A wet room can be designed around the individual, rather than expecting the individual to adapt to a standard bathroom. From the positioning of grab rails to the height of the sink and toilet, every part of the room can be considered to make it easier and safer to use.
Wet Room Showers With Seats
A shower with a seat is a popular choice when converting a bathroom to a wet room. A fold-down shower seat provides a secure place to sit while showering, which can be particularly helpful for people who find standing for long periods difficult.
Combined with easy-to-use controls, adjustable shower fittings and supportive grab rails, a seated shower can help reduce the need to stretch, balance or rely on assistance from a carer.
The level-access design of a wet room also provides additional space for manoeuvring, making it easier to transfer from a wheelchair or use other mobility equipment.
Making Your Wet Room Safer
Safety is an important part of any bathroom adaptation. As well as creating a level-access shower area, we can incorporate features such as grab rails, supportive seating and slip-resistant flooring.
Lighting and colour choices can also make a difference, particularly for people living with conditions that affect vision or perception. Clearly defined areas and contrasting colours can make different parts of the bathroom easier to recognise.
For people living with Dementia or Parkinson’s, we can consider the overall layout, lighting, materials and positioning of bathroom products to create a calmer and easier-to-navigate environment.
Can Any Bathroom Be Converted Into a Wet Room?
Many existing bathrooms can be adapted into wet rooms, but every property is different. The available space, existing plumbing, flooring and layout all need to be considered before work begins. Our team works with dedication to bring your new wet room to life and complete the entire installation, from fittings to decorating and tiling, lighting and plumbing.
At G360 Bathrooms, we look at the bathroom as a whole and design the space around the needs of the person using it. This may involve changing the layout, widening the doorway, adapting plumbing or creating additional space for wheelchair manoeuvring. We even start from scratch if you’re considering moving a bathroom downstairs or to a more accessible level or area of your home.
