Lee - he’s a top guy who knows his stuff. Problem was diagnosed quickly and resolved immediately - no fuss! Price was fair. Would recommend without hesitation.
David
Shah was so reliable, experienced and polite. He made suggestions that helped us without pressuring us into anything or imposing on us. The work was all carried out as agreed quickly and he worked long days to get it all done. The changes we made were added onto our bill at the end and were far lower than I had been expecting. We’ll definitely have Shah back for the next phase of our renovation when we’re ready!

Local wet room installation
Cost of wet room installation
The cost of a wet room installation depends on several factors, including the size of the room, materials used, and the complexity of the design. On average, the cost ranges from £5,000 to £10,000 for a professionally installed wet room. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the costs:
- Preparation and Waterproofing: Proper waterproofing is essential for any wet room. Tanking the space (applying a waterproof membrane) can cost between £1,000 and £2,000, depending on the size of the room.
- Tiling: Floor and wall tiles are key to the look and function of a wet room. Depending on your choice of tiles, costs can range from £25 to £100 per square metre, plus charges for a tiler to install it.
- Plumbing: You will need a plumber to install drainage, pipework, and fixtures, which can add £1,000 to £3,000, depending on the complexity of the project.
- Additional Features: Custom features such as underfloor heating, high-end fittings, or luxury finishes will increase the overall cost.
Advantages and disadvantages of a wet room
Advantages:
- Space-Saving: Wet rooms create an open, spacious feel by eliminating the need for a shower cubicle or bath.
- Easy to Clean: With fewer fixtures and no shower enclosure, wet rooms are easier to clean and maintain.
- Accessibility: Wet rooms are ideal for those with mobility issues as they offer barrier-free access to the shower area.
Disadvantages:
- Cost: Wet room installations can be more expensive than standard bathrooms due to the need for waterproofing and specialist installation.
- Water Control: Poor design can lead to water pooling outside the shower area, so proper drainage and sloping are crucial.
How long does it take to install a wet room?
A standard wet room installation typically takes between 7 to 10 days, depending on the complexity of the project. The timeline includes preparation work like waterproofing, tiling, plumbing, and installing fixtures. Larger or more intricate designs may require additional time for completion.
Other wet room FAQs
Do I need planning permission for a wet room?
Planning permission is not usually required unless you are making structural changes or altering the drainage system in listed buildings or conservation areas.
Does a wet room need to be on the ground floor?
No, wet rooms can be installed on any floor, as long as proper waterproofing and drainage systems are in place to prevent leaks.
Do wet rooms get mouldy?
If properly waterproofed and ventilated, wet rooms should not have issues with mould.

Welcome to SDL PKB, A Business Proudly Built on Customer Satisfaction. As the Proud owner of such a business id like to express my beliefs in what make a great business but also as to why I have these beliefs. Growing up in North West London my grandparents came from large families, with many brother and sisters both my ( English and a tad Irish ) Nan and Grandad had nothing, Thankfully my Nans family got into fruit and veg and had all the fruit and veg stalls in Kilburn for a bit, my Nan having one of them advised my Grandad to give up painting and focus on Fruit and Veg. Through hard work and determination coupled with being good with people that very stall ( next to what was woolworths now Iceland ) meant my mum and aunt could benefit and have the things my Nan and Grandad couldn't. My ( Greek Cypriot ) Dad was taught the skill by my Grandparents as he was my father and would go on to Make a successful Fruit and Veg shop in Golders Green in which I'm extremely proud of. Working in this shop as you would go into it on the right used to be ' A business built on customer satisfaction '. You see it isn't the building game but it's all the same to me, we serve the customers and we leave them Satisfied Every Single time. That's the name of the game. My Grandad would later teach me how to paint and my Nan would teach me how to work with oil based paints and the rest is history. To me personally when a customer decides to proceed with SDL PKB it always fills me with a rush of Pride, Joy, Greatfullness and Enthusiasm. Never will I take a customer of they're precious home for Granted. When you proceed with SDL PKB I know full well what's your getting but you can only trust until the job is complete then you know we're not ' all mouth ' We don't just talk the talk. We walk the walk. Paul our Sales representative/ Project Manager is a friendly extremely knowledgeable individual who I'm truly proud to work with and forever greatful for his dedication to our customers who mesn the world to us. I speak purely from the Heart, my business was made to provide for my family and the future of my darling daughter who I truly adore. My Grandad.... I couldn't express to you what he means to me, no one knew SDL PKB would take off like it did and he went just whilst it started to lift off but I know he's watching down proud and I'm Glad my Nan is here to witness her Grandson take the thrown. Kind Regards Shayne
Highly recommend SDL PKB. They recently completed work on my bathroom and I couldn’t be happier with the result. The job was finished ahead of schedule with excellent workmanship. The team was tidy, respectful and always kept me informed. A professional and reliable service from start to finish.
